I have to do a curbside vet appointment and hope that I have enough money to pay for it. I feel like I’m going to die and my emotions are going fucking crazy because of my puppy. She’s been having digestive issues for 2 weeks and I’ve been following everything the vet said. I’ve paid $150 in probiotic supplements and medicine and chicken and rice to help her belly.

    That really sucks. I know when I had COVID, I got pretty fuzzy mentally and it made dealing with anything a lot harder. I called into work a couple times to support things I thought important enough to warrant it, and it was really tough. I’m sorry you have to deal with vet stuff and decisions when you should just be able to be sick.

    Did the vet check for parasites? As I understand it, usually rectal prolapse in dogs is because they’re straining to poop, either because of constipation or diarrhea. If you’ve already been trying to make sure her diet is bland, it could be something else messing her up.

    Is it a really young puppy? They can have generic issues too, unfortunately.

    Hang in there!
