          She got an IV, Precortin injection, and she was like new. She gets really expensive shots once a month now, but totally worth it.

          That's what I was going to say it sounds like. Happened to my dog dec 2013. Thought she wasn't going to make it. Doc's kept running test and figured out that's what it was. She now gets small doses of prednisone and fludrocordisone daily in pill form. She is doing good. Has a bad day or two every few months but then is fine. Prayers for your pup.

                    Sorry for the delay in updating but it took awhile to get the stuff necessary to test. I just got off the phone with the vet who said the test confirms she has Addison's disease which is treatable. We are going first thing in the morning to get her a shot that will balance her out. She will need to take this once a month but other than that should be good.

                    Thanks yo everyone who sent out prayers, our family really appreciates it.
