Thanks for the reply. The Mobile vet who was here just watched her for a while and got familiar with her. She is very timid so depending on her response to him, was the determining factor of would he be the one to come to my house when the time comes. I am having her put down here at home for her benefit. She had a CBC about 6 months ago and all was normal for her age, the liver was a little elevated. The problem is taking her to the vet, She gets really freaked in the car and it's not worth the trauma to her at her age. She seems to be doing better on the Previcox than the Rimadyl. She seems more alert in her eyes. Thanks for the advise
