Please scour the cloud net ( Meisha's Hope) site listed above.. There is much much info on AIHA and ITP. Vaccinations can very well be a trigger. Our Cody is an AIHA survivor and no longer gets vax except for rabies every 3 years. He didn't receive any vax for several years after his acute illness.

My avatar picture is of my 4 yr 2 month old golden boy, Hunter, who died Oct. 16, 2003 due to autoimmune hemolytic anemai (it is a close cousin to what your dog was diagnosed with)) His followed a ProHeart6 heartowmr preention injection.

i had never heard of AIHA until my Hunter was diagnosed. And I woudl hae never suspected the ProHeart 6 injection as being the cause of it if my vet had not said right after diagnosis (When it comes time for Hunter's next Proheart injection we are going back to the Interceptor pills."

IU live in a small town but we do have a little library with a few computers so I went there and they showed me how to use them and I typed in AIHA and was stunned to read about it. I found Meisha's Hope that way. Then I typ[ed in Proheart 6 and got hit after hit after hit. The first one was Jean in Colorado who had taken all 3 of her dogs in the same day for PH6 injections. In two months, 11 year old niki (a "skipper key" -don't know how to spell it) was deadl of liver dmanage and 4 year old
Tasha, a mix was dead of AIHA and her 2 year old shepherd/lab mix was on meds (and still is 9 years later) for autoimmune disease, but can't recall excactly what it was). Next, Myra in NC--her shihtzu, dead of AIHA, Janice in Houston--her hound, Trouble, dead with the same thing your dogt is diagnsoed with), Kim in Forth Worth--her rottie Cheif dead of AI"HA. Sue in Wioscon, her border collie, bandit died of seizures about 24 hours after getting his PH6 injection. His seizxures had been none stop except when totally knocked out, but upon waking, they started back up. He died the same day as myu Hunter

All in all i "talked" to about 45 people on the net whose dogs died of AIHA following their PH6 injection. And aso many whose dogs died of liver damage. As it turned out the necrpsy showed Hunter also had "drug induced necrosis of the liver--it was killing his liver. My boy never stood a chance. And it turns otu several dogs had more than one reaction.

Thru the years I have been on many forums and have been shocked at the number od dogs developing AIHA, etc following vacinations. When I got my new computer, mu AIHA group's addy was not added, but on it, everyone had a dog diagnosed with one of the two auto immune diseases mentioned here, and almost to a tee, nobdy was getting any more vax for their dogs.

I am hoping you dog comes thru this and lives a long and happy life. And never doubt for a meninute that a vax can not cause one of these diseases. The FDA did agree that that PH6 was causing to many recation a and two of the leading ones that killed were liver damage and AIHA and had Fort Dodge pull it from the market to reformulate it. Was off almost 4 years, is back now, but is not being pushed and has a ton of warnings on the label.

I lost my beautiful Aiyana to vaccine induced AIHA in 2008. They do know there is a connection they don't like to advertise it!

"It came to me that every time I lose a dog they take a piece of my heart with them. And every new dog who comes into my life, gifts me with a piece of their heart. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are."

At the Bridge: Dream, Aiyana, Wolfie and Gwen

In July of this year (2012) we stopped administering prednisone to Sali. Towards the end of June of 2012 she became a lot more energetic and was acting like she had before she had vaccinations. Within about 2 weeks she was a new dog, running, playing, prancing around like a pup. Only side effect seems to be hair loss. Her beautiful feathers disappeared and her tail looked like it belonged to a rat. The hair is growing back now and she is lively and full of spirit. I tell her every day how happy I am that she is better!

WOW, that's wonderful to hear. It's always heartening to hear of survivors. Please keep us posted.
