Bo


Sorry that it's been awhile since I have posted. For the last 3 weeks Bo has been sick. Long story short he started with an eye infection and ended up not eating or drinking for over a week. He ended up at the emergency vet and spent the night and then we transferred him to our regular vet. where he stayed 3 more nights. After many test, they thought he must have swallowed a foreign object. He was headed to surgery, but they said lets do a Chemistry blood test, which we are pretty sure we wouldn't find anything because he is so young(2 1/2 years old). But unfortunately, he came up with a problem related to his kidneys. They did fluid therapy and we brought him home and the latest news is he has improved!

Our next step is to wait 2 weeks and retest him. I am cooking for him, trying to put more weight on him as he lost 9 pounds. He is doing so much better, eating, running in the snow, and now he is barking more than ever especially at the Cincinnati Bell commercial that has a hairy stuff animal in it and the Disney commercial with miss piggy ...... Go figure....it's great seeing him up and about.

  1. Awwww, poor baby. I'm glad he's doing better. Back in November my pup did swallow a penny and couldn't pass it. We took her t the emergency room and they had to do an endoscopy. Cost us a fortune but there was no other choice.
