Hey everyone after hours of research I've stumbled upon this amazing forum -
Here is my situation.
My dog Bebe is a 12 year old 30lb Oripei and we've been treating her diabetes for about a year or so now. Last week was the roughest time her life.. She was non-stop vomiting, uncontrolled diarrhea, wouldn't eat, very lethargic, and urinated all over the house. We ended up taking her to the emergency room where she was treated for early stages of ketoacidosis (most likely from complications of her diabetes). She was then treated with fluids and medication which completely turned everything around. Now she is eating on a bland diet (white rice and ground beef) and is currently taking 10 mL of insulin twice a day. However, she continues to frequently drink lots of water and urinate. It has been getting out of control. Do you think it's the insulin intake or the diet that is contributing to the frequent urination and water intake? Any advice would be highly appreciated. It has been a stressful time for the family and we want to get her diabetes under control. Thanks!
