Tuesday, Dakota took a pretty good tumble down a full flight of
stairs, spine first. Nothing was broken, but I noticed yesterday that
he seemed to have lost balance and strength on his left side.
Last night, he went into full-body convulsions for a minute or so.
We are off to the vet at 3:30. Koda is resting on the air mattress down here on the first floor.
Update: Back from the vet. We are treating "symptomatically", as the diagnostics for Koda would cost more than mine! He now has industrial-strength steroids (Dexamethasone) to take over the next two weeks. If his symptoms are caused by swelling resulting from the fall, this should clear them up.
I'm cautiously optimistic, which is a big improvement.
