My 10 year old Jack Russell is drinking a lot,peeing a lot and licks her legs a lot after eating,she has been tested for diabetes and is clear,any suggestions please?
I’m having a hard time factoring the licking of the legs into the picture, particularly if diabetes was ruled out because that can cause strange sensations or lack of sensation.
However, drinking and peeing a lot means there IS a problem. Diabetes is a top suspect but if that was ruled out, something else is to blame. Which diagnostics were done? Urinalysis? Blood work? No abnormalities on these tests at all? Is there any swelling of the legs? Where does she lick? Feet or elsewhere? Any other changes in appetite, stamina …?
