Hiw hard is it doing the fluid shits at home. She is a baby
It's not very hard. Just make sure when you pinch the skin that you don't go through and through because you'll shoot fluid everywhere when you turn the bag on. It's really not too bad, just hold some pressure when you're done so they don't leak on the floor. Ours was little so sometimes, we'd give her fluids on both sides so she wasn't so lopsided while it absorbed.
Honestly, do it at the vets office a couple times to get the hang of it. Go at an angle so you don't hit muscle and it's a piece of cake.

She didn’t like it no
It could have been my mom struggled with poking her but one morning before my mom did it my dad saw the look in her eyes & said that it was enough
Yours may tolerate it better, each dog is different & ours was pretty late stage

I would not spend money on a 16 year old dog.

Well it’s only $54 a week for the fluid procedure I am looking tosee if it hurts dog or if it makes kidneys want to work less
Posted on 6/22/26 at 4:10 pm to LSUBALLER

The progression from stage 2 to stage 3 kidney failure in dogs can vary widely depending on factors such as the underlying cause of the kidney disease, the dog's overall health, and the management of the condition. Regular veterinary monitoring and early intervention can help slow the progression, but it is often a gradual process that may take months to years.
Regardless of the kidney failure, she's getting up there. When it is time, pay to get a mobile vet to come to you so she can die at home, peacefully.

If in New Orleans, Dr. Ashley. Fur De Lis does housecalls.Not cheap, but worth every penny. Sorry you are dealing with this.

My cat Layla was diagnosed with stage 2 kidney disease many years ago. Vet gave me bags of saline to inject her at home. Did this twice a day for a year. She finally grew tired of it and wasn’t having it any longer. She passed 4 months later (I had to have her put to sleep). She only let me do it for so long because she was the sweetest cat ever.
Iif you decide to go with saline at home warm up the saline in warm water before injecting. It makes it more comfortable for your pet baby.
And sorry to hear about your father. Lost mine in January 2025 and I miss him a lot. You & yours will be in my prayers.
