Well, we started Summer on prozac for SA, but she literally turned into zombie dog. It was awful... no interest in playing or agility (which she loves). But now after a week of no prozac, she's back to her usual antics! See for yourself:

Mom! I'm coming, Mom!

Aw, look at that smile! I'm glad she's back to being herself!

I just love Summer. Adorable. Glad to see she is all happy and smiling. Are you managing her SA without drugs?

Great pictures! I'm glad to hear that she is feeling better being off the Prozac..

 

[Thracian]

Oh, she looks so happy! Great pictures, as usual.

Sorry the medicine didn't work out for her. I hope you find something else to help you with her SA.

Ok I have to ask , what is SA ? Super Aussie ? hehe

 

[MissMutt]

SA is Separation Anxiety.

Sorry it didn't work out, Laurelin. I didn't even realize that she was SA. Love the pics though!

She looks wonderful Lauralin! I have to ask have you tried any other drugs for the SA? Pebbles SA was quite severe and she was on Chlomicalm for 3 1/2 months and now she is a totally different dog! We still have our moments, but it is sooo much better.

I was thinking of asking about that. I'm a little reluctant to try drugs again with her. Iw as assured she'd be the same on prozac but she wasn't at all.

At agility she wouldn't even run, it was so sad. But she's back now and just the way I like her.

Speaking with experience of having taken such a drug in the past, there is nothing better than when you can feel again. She looks absolutely overjoyed. Beautiful, too.

I hope you can find a way to manage her SA that doesn't take her entire personality away.. I'm more than sure you can.

That is horrible. I'm not sure about the prozac b/c my vet didn't say that was an option for us. I don't think that the two are similar at all, I'm not 100% though. I saw some difference in Pebs while she was on the cc. But I'm not sure if it was the drug or the fact that I was finally getting through the SA and seeing who she truly was. She was still her 'normal' ball loving self, I know something is wrong when she doesn't want to play ball.
