Is my dog going to be ok?

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010 at 12:14 pm

Last week my dog Buster (6 year old yorkiepoo) was diagnosed with a bulging disk in his lower back. The vet gave him some prednisone and some other anti-inflammatory pills. Then he started pooping out bloody stools and just blood. So the vet put him on some medicine to help with that. Two nights ago Buster really started to act like he was getting better and was actually eating again and able to lay down and get back up without crying in pain. Then last night my parents woke up to piles of blood and puke on the kitchen floor. Buster is now in the doggy hospital for the night. I just want to know if anyone is a vet tech or something and if you can tell me what to expect. Is he going to be ok? We just had to put our other dog down a few months ago due to old age and I can’t even imagine losing him! Please I would like some positive encouragement. I’m practically bawling my eyes out now just typing this. Thank you!!

Unfortunately I have had hard stools for about a week to two weeks. I also think that I might have a tear because of this. This is concerning to me and I really don’t want to take something over the counter. (Just because I have no idea when I will need to use the restroom because the medicine has kicked in.) Also are there foods I should be avoiding? i.e.; sugar, processed foods, ECT. Thank you for the help.

A Word About Choosing Bar Stools

Finding and choosing the right kind of Bar Stools or counter stools for your bar, home or your kitchen is an important part choice, as many different sizes, materials, finishes and colors.
First of all, decide if you are choosing Counter Stools or Bar Stools, as they are somewhat different. Bar stools are usually a little taller, by around 4 inches. A good measurement to consider is to make sure that the stool's cushion or seat is about 10 to 12 inches from the underside of the bar or counter. That way, you know that you and your guests will be seated comfortably and have suitable leg room while seated.
Sometimes you may want to go with backless stools, if you don't have a lot of space or room. They have no backs or arms and so they are easier to move around.
Another important consideration is choosing the right height of the foot rests of your bar stools. If you don't get the right foot rest heights ahead of time, you may not be getting the right stools and people will not be very comfortable or have proper leg room while sitting at your home bar.
Of course, seating comfortably will be different for everyone, but if you sit and see the foot rest height is good for you, it will probably do for most. Unless you are getting custom bar stools made for you, you have to get them with the foot rests as they are.
Take your measurements with you when you go shopping and know the heights of the counter or bar surface and underside and ask for help from the salesperson if you are not sure of what sizes to get.
If you purchase adjustable barstools, where you can raise or lower the height of the stool itself, then it's easier to allow the user to adjust to find the right height for the most comfort while sitting. This is ideal if you want to use the stools for different places in your home, from the kitchen counter to the home bar or a kitchen island, for example. Most brands and makers of kitchen and bar stools that are adjustable allow about 10 to 15 inches, which can accommodate almost anyone.
