I think Bella has it
I can't even begin to explain just how sad I am about this. Bella is bombproof on house training, and she lies on my bed all the time in the day. Yesterday, she was lying on the bed as usual and I went about my day, when I came back into my room, there was a large wet spot on the blanket (I put a "dog" blanket on top of my normal blanket during the day, and then a protective plastic sheet underneath the dog blanket so if Bella has muddy paws or wet belly my own bed and bedding doesn't get messed, thank goodness), right by Bella's rear end, and she had not even gotten up even though her fur was visibly starting to get wet as well. Which to me means she obviously didnt even notice it? I woke her up and tossed the bedding in the wash.
This is not the first time this has happened, it happened once before about 2 months ago, but I didn't realise at the time that the wet patch was pee, or that Bella had done it because she was no longer on the bed when I discovered it. Obviously it is not a common occurance, but this scares me beyond words.
I DO NOT have money at all for a vet visit and I don't have money for meds either. My family, as well, is in a dark place financially right now, and I don't know what to do. There isn't even a cent to spare right now for anything, we are essentially living on bare minimum and even that is too much for us to afford right now. Does ANYONE have ANY advice on what I can do to help Bella at home?
