Tuchas's respiration is 120 per minute! Help!

Thanks Vida, and you know, I sure do feel that way! That I finance the vets. But if its not one thing it's my mother....and I am always calling the vets. They make fun of me too because its never anything normal. I told him, when he got out here last night that I was afraid to call because I might have been making it up. He said that his vitals were so bad even after the banamine that you'd normally think surgical colic, although he didn't show any other colic signs really.

I was just out doing a poop search which is really hard with 8 horses wandering around out there. I tried to isolate Tuchas but it aggravated him so much we were afraid it would exsacerbate (SPELLING??) the problem.


About a half hour ago he was holding his tail out and cocked and occasionally doing the swhish it madly thing.... But when I put hay out he was all over it and I did see him drink a good bit of water. What to do what to do?

I have to take the dog in to the vets in the morning for knee surgery and the cat in because I think she may be diabetic? So I will be able to talk to him then. Just keeping a close eye for now and, as usual doubting myself...ug ug ug

Just put Tuchas in the back seat with Kitty and Dawg. I KNOW you have considered it! I'd take hope in the willingness to eat and drink. That's always a good sign. Tell your vet you want a bulk rate. You deserve it!

Are you sure it's not illegal in Kentucky to put a donkey in a honda civic

I really really really DO want the bulk rate
