He is doing great today. The pain meds the vet gave him helped but I really believe it was all the prayers. Thank you for making the link for me to share. Ill take good care of him and make sure he heals all the way this time. I dont want him going through that pain again
God bless you and thank you for the help

Great! Thank you Jesus! No you don’t want to experience that again😳 I’m so glad he’s getting some relief. If you are unable to afford the supplements mentioned in the article I posted this morning, here are some less expensive alternatives. He needs to have some sort of anti-inflammatory food or substance on a daily basis to keep him out of pain.

He is doing wonderful!! Thank you so much for posting this for me and all the prayers. God definitely has healed him. ❀️

PRAY FOR: Edgar, 6 yo. Probable slipped disc. Lord Jesus we ask that the injections Edgar received would quell the inflammation and begin to heal this scary pain he is experiencing. Help mom Cassie to find a way to fully isolate him now and in the weeks to come so that Edgar’s body has an opportunity to heal completely. Help the family to understand Edgar’s need for alone time. Please heal this condition fully and renew Edgar’s passion for life. In the Name of Adonai Rapha. God our Healer. Amen. <3 Caren

Please pray for my dog Edgar. He is in alot of pain and we aren’t sure why. The vet gave him pain meds and steriods. I didn’t have enough financially to get an xray on him. He has been laying down alot and shaking because of the pain. He is a family dog. My kids love him and so do I. Please pray God will heal him and he will get to feeling better.

Exodus 23:24 Do not bow down before their gods or worship them or follow their practices. You must demolish them and break their sacred stones to pieces. 25 Worship the Lord your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you, 26 and none will miscarry or be barren in your land. I will give you a full life span.

I was looking over your conversations on the group. So he was diagnosed with a disc problem?
Cassie Vega
He was about a month ago. He was showed the same symptoms. He was shaking and crying out. I took him to the emergency vet. They gave him steriods and a pain injection. I kept him still and comfortable till he healed. They had told me if he had more problems he may need an xray. They weren’t really sure but said the type of dog he is has alot of back and joint problems. He got better pretty fast. I was thankful and didn’t think it would happen again till this morning. I heard him crying and he was laying on the bathroom floor shaking. I could tell he was hurting again. I still had strriods from last time but I didn’t have anything for pain for him. I called the vet and told them.i didn’t have the money this time but he is having the same problem he did last time. They gave me something to give him for pain. It seems to be helping. He actually got up and started eating and drinking. Im not sure if it is a slipped disc but if it keeps going on, he definitely needs an xray to find the cause

Prayers for Pets
The best thing you can do for him if this is a recurrence of the disc problem is to isolate him and keep him quiet. Do you have a crate for him? Usually a slipped disc requires at least six weeks of crate rest. If you didn’t have that he probably didn’t heal all the way. I am not a Veterinary professional, I can only advise you as a friend but I’ve watched people go through this many times.
Let me know if you want me to post him on the website tomorrow morning. I would be happy to. I will need a couple of good clear photos of him not too close up, but featuring his face and midsection. Or you could send some illustrative video of him in discomfort.
Is Tiny still doing well? He would need to keep other dogs and children away from Edgar to keep him quiet and still.

I’m going to be offline for about an hour. I will watch for pictures of Edgar. Please also take a moment to go over this:

Tiny had a traumatic brain injury last year

Yes I appreciate it. He needs all the prayers he can get right now. I didnt have a crate but when I would leave i put him a blanket in the bathroom and set down food and water. I closed the door and let him stay there until I got back. When I’m home he will lay beside my bed. He hasn’t tried moving much at all. Yea if it takes that long to heal, he may have reinjured it. He was acting back to normal and I thought he would be ok. Ill be more careful this time. Tiny is doing wonderful. That truly was a miracle. I didnt think he would make it but he snapped out of it and got ok. He was even paralyzed for a while. That was God that healed him. He is normal and had no long term effects at all
Cassie Vega
Thank you so much
Prayers for Pets
Yes, he does. I’m glad to see that Tiny looks so good. How old is Edgar? Is he part Westie terrier?

Cassie Vega
Yes he is. He is a westie mix. He is 6 years old now. Tiny is 2 years
Prayers for Pets
Ok. I would recommend that you keep him isolated. If you don’t have a crate, some kind of box should do in a pinch.
How does he seem at this hour? Is he still crying?

Cassie Vega
Yes i definitely will this time. I want him to heal all the way. I dont want him to go through that pain again. It hurts to see him hurting so bad. I feel so helpless
No, he is acting fine right now. I took him outside to use the bathroom. He did good and came back in. No more shaking and crying. He came by my bed to lay down and go to sleep
Prayers for Pets
I’m glad he’s doing well. My husband and I will be praying for you and your family tonight. I’m especially glad he is no longer shaking and crying, that is the worst! Hopefully he will stay down for the night, then tomorrow you can see about keeping him isolated from Tiny. Didn’t you have bigger dogs too?

Cassie Vega
No, just Tiny. Tiny is a mini pom. He is just 7 lbs. Edgar is really close to him. He treats him like that is his puppy lol
Thank you for the prayers. I appreciate it so much!!
Prayers for Pets
Yes I know Tiny is small, but remember Edgar is small too. Little dogs have a lot of energy and move a lot they should be kept apart if you want Edgar to heal fully. I will I was him in the morning. Gnite luv. πŸ’—πŸ™ Caren

Cassie Vega
That is true. I will keep them separated until Edgar heals. I dont want to do anything that would make this worse or ongoing. Ill keep him isolated and give him time to recover. Thank you so much for the advice
Goodnight and God bless πŸ’“

Don’t take my word alone for it; check with others. We have some Veterinary professionals in the group, Marcia Guzik is one, Anita Chaplin is another. This may be helpful too: ARTHRITIS, HIP DYSPLASIA https://prayersforpets1.org/hip-dysplasia-arthritis-range-of-motion-ivdd-in-dogs/ πŸ’—πŸ™ Caren

Cassie Vega
I will but what you said makes alot of sense. The vet said something similar as well. This time I will be more cautious with him
Prayers for Pets
Ok luv, good to hear πŸ€—πŸ˜˜ good night. πŸ’—πŸ™Caren
