Poor Greyhound : (

This poor little guy needs some prayers because he is so brave.

Here's his story:

At the Animal hospital I work at, the Vet works closely with a program that adopts out X racing Greyhounds. He Neuters and spays them and does any other medical stuff they need before they go to new homes. Well this poor little guy came in last week really sick. His name isSteve he is gorgeous brindle greyhound. Just looking at this dog makes you feel so sad. He is the thinnest dog you have ever seen. He weighs 40lbs and is suppost to weigh about 70lbs!!! His problem is that he has cronic diarrhea. Everything he eats comes shooting out the other end. (poor guy) The Dr. has him on like 7 different meds and FP(full response) diet. It is fish and potatoes. We though he might be allergic to something in his food so thats why we gave him something hes never eaten before. But that hasn't helped. And the meds havn't helped him either. The Dr. scarred that we might loose Steve.

The thing that is so amazing is that Steve still is so happy and loving. I all I can do is give him love back. I bring him in the yard and play fetch. He loves it! but when I go to leave he stops and follows me around like he's in a heel position, and when I stop he goes in front of me and puts his chin on my stomache and looks up at me with his big deer like eyes that scream "Help me"

I hope we can help this dog. He deserve to be able to live and have a chance to find a great family because he is great dog.

I'll find out tomorrow how he's doing. ( I havn't seen him since tuesday)

wish him luck guys!!

Steve will be in my prayers

Prayers for Steve. I hope they find out what's wrong and are willing to try and fix it.

I'll be praying for Steve.

Diana, please give Steve a huge hug and kiss from us. Those Greyhounds steal my heart every single time. Oh, if I just had the space for another one! :)

Please let dear, sweet, brave Steve know that we are all praying that he will recover and find that he will find that special home where he will be loved and cherished forever. What a courageous, loving boy. The tears are falling. Please God grant this sweet soul a chance at life. Hugs and kisses for you Steve.

Will send prayers for this poor baby.

Thanks guys for all the kind words.

Steve isn't doing any better but he isn't any worse either.

Last Wed the Dr. did an endoscopy and took some tissue samples of his stomach and intestine.

The results aren't back yet, so everyone is just waiting.

I just hope there is something we can do for him. I fear that the Vet is loosing hope:(

Hey, better news today....Stevie gained a pound. :D

I know it doesn't sound like that much...but its better then losing a pound

The biopsy results aren't back yet

That's some good news!! Praying for a recovery.

Steve is in my thoughts. I hope he has a speedy recovery and can find a great forever home soon!

Poor sweet Steve..... :( Lots of prayers coming his way. Thank God you have an awesome vet!

C'mon Steve, you can do it!! You are in the Kendall's prayers too. Is there any more news?? Rinny was like that when we got him too...but obviously not to this extent because Pepto Bismol tablets took care of his. I hope Steve is continuing to improve albeit slowly.

Sending you healing prayers and hugs sweet Stevie. So happy to hear you're gaining some weight! Paws, tails and fingers crossed for good results on the biopsy!

sending you lots of prayers....and:

Please keep getting better...
