KOP don't throw in the towel yet.
Her gums are obviously white because of depleted red blood cells, awa her tongue. Try to get her red blood count up and her body might fight and do the rest.
Try giving her blood and raw egg. She won't like it, use a syringe without the needle, to squirt it down her throat every hour about 10ml.
Also give her 1/2 a disprin/aspirin, 3x a day. She might just survive.

Hope like hell it aint antifreeze, tiny amount will kill a dog, My chow mix weighd over 40 lbs got some on his paws digging at fence where neighbor sat a radiator. his kidneys failed and even thought it didnt kill him the seizures for 3 years got progressivly worse so we had to put him to sleep. I sat with him till it was over and he died on my lap with me holding him and bawling like a big baby. pray you dont have to go through that and your best friend doesnt have to suffer like that.

Vets find tainted food kills dogs
Alert issued on pet products made in South Carolina facility.

Pet food alert
Retailers and shoppers are urged not to sell or use dog and cat food products made at Diamond Pet Foods' Gaston, S.C., facility. The Diamond or Professional pet food bears a capital G in the 11th or 12th character in the date code, indicating it was made at the Gaston facility.

ROCHESTER - Two Rochester-area veterinarians who suspected that dogs were dying from tainted food quickly alerted Cornell University and area veterinarians, helping to prompt a 22-state alert by the dog food company.
Late last week, Drs. Stuart Gluckman and Sara Sanders of Mendon Village Animal Hospital treated several dogs with liver problems. All of the dogs had eaten the same dry dog food, manufactured by Diamond Pet Foods' Gaston, S.C., facility.
On Saturday, they sent food samples to Cornell's Small Animal Hospital and to Diamond. Two toxicology labs have since confirmed that the food was tainted with Aflatoxin, a toxic chemical naturally produced by growth of the fungus aspergillus flavus on corn or other crops.
New York and Pennsylvania stores receive dog food from the Gaston facility, as do 20 other states.
In the past seven days, six Rochester-area dogs have died, most likely from the deadly fungus, and at least eight more are being treated for damage caused by the toxin, Sanders said. "Our fear is that this is just the tip of the iceberg."
Late Wednesday, Diamond Pet Foods issued a statement that the deadly toxin was found in dog - and cat- food made in its Gaston facility.
Dr. Sharon Center, a professor of internal medicine at Cornell's Small Animal Hospital and a liver specialist, has been treating some of the dogs. She praised the quick action of the Mendon vets. They "probably saved a lot of dogs by figuring it out that fast," she said.
hoping for a miracle steve.ke3ep an eye out for this food.

I saw a news report yesterday on the Diamond Dog Food Company. Seems they produced some food under several names that is poisonous to dogs. Seeing as they can't seem to find the root cause - Check you dog's food and make sure it wasn't made by Diamond. I hope this helps.

Your post just jogged my memory of the report. I'm going to throw an FYI post out for others who may not read this.
I hope things turn for the better.

Something isn't right here KOP. If your dog got that sick and ate the Diamond food. Is this food manufacturer sure it isn't other food too ? I'd be kinda leary to think it wasn't the diamond food. Seems an awful coincidence that your dog is sick after eating the stuff they say is o.k.

How is the dog........sure does sound like poisoning.....the other dog wouldn't of gotten into the thrown out food would it sumhow or do I have the dogs mixed up ? Pedigree is a good food and more affordable.......some kennels recommend it.......I know alot of people that love Old Roy.......they have a lamb and rice I think. But I think alot of the cheap foods use cheap fillers and no way around that........and when I switched to Pedigree or Purina I had 3 times more dog poop in my dog runs......I mean it was BAZAAR the difference. I had so much crap the one day after switching that I was in shock !! Each dog run was smeared with it and probly 10 piles like a mini horse had been in there verses 3 small drier piles. So I found out expirmenting with other good brands that fillers just FILL the dog up and go rite thru them that's all and nutrition is added with other means like powerders or additives verses REAL FOOD VALUE. There still supposed to be good brands but I found out you do get what ya pay for. Prices are out of control like everything else. Stay away from Retriever Brand too......I think Tractor supply sells that and have heard of several dogs getting sick on it and lots of hair loss. Probly lacking sumthing they NEED to survive causeing the imbalance for that to happen. It's all a guessing game.....they found out several years back cats HAD to have "torrien" (spelling) for healthy muscles and eye functions but it wasn't included in cat food yet. Lots of animals die too young from liver and kidney failure I blame on the food guessing games.......too much of this or that and it overworks them both or becomes toxic and builds up with some of the additives. I've stuck with Iam's for the dogs and Eukabeena for the cats cuz they have teeny bites for them older cats can chew. Alot of ingredients in pet foods comes from slaughter'd animals cancer's diseases infections and all and they are sayin that is NOT cool. Live to kill Pam
