Val, maybe try cutting up the chicken into small pieces and mixing it well with some of his regular food? Adding gravy/stock if it's dry food maybe.Quote:

Good news! I was getting ready to open a can of food and maybe try and get Duke to eat half with some dry. He started eating dry food on his own. It wasn't a lot and I didn't try and make him eat more. I figure he knows better than I how much to eat. So, tomorrow I will put half a can of food with his dry. I think he's pretty hungry so he should begin to start eating fine tomorrow.
This morning, I took him for a short walk after I got home. Let him enjoy all the smells and I thought it would be good for his hip, too.
I swear I think he had some sort of virus. Can dogs get those? He's not nearly as unstable though he is a bit wobbly still.
I am so thankful that he's starting to eat again. Makes me so happy. He's feeling and acting much like his old self :D
Thanks for all your good thoughts and prayers.
Thanks for the wonderful update Valerie.:D Yes, maybe he caught a bug and just wasn't feeling well. I know exactly what you're feeling because my baby Ziggy is now eating on her own again too after being sick. May Duke continue to improve. More prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.:)
Oh, What a splendid update on Dear Duke!!!
Now you can look forward to getting up in the morning and watching him eat. I was hoping and praying that he would make a turn around soon.
Sensational News!!!!!!!!! :p
Sounds like he had some kind of a bug Val. I am glad he is getting to feeling better.
:D Good boy, Duke! glad he's feeling a little better.
Such good news! I hope the news just gets better and better!
That's great news!! :D Certainly made me start my Sunday with a smile!
{{hugs}} for you both.
Great news Val!! I had a feeling that Duke just caught a little bug. I think Duke has plenty of good time left on this earth and I had confidence that it would pass. Still keeping him in my thoughts and prayers for a swift and complete recovery. This is just what I needed to start my day too!! :)
This is wonderful news. :) I'm so glad he's feeling better and eating
more now.Way to go Duke. :)
Loved hearing that Duke is feeling better. Hope to hearing he is doing even better and better.
Willie :)
Great news! He ate a whole can of food tonight. I'm so very thankful he's well. I took a pic of him having his noserubber tonight. It's the first one he's had in about a week and a half. Duke says thanks to everyone who's wished him well.
Good Boy Duke!!! We know how happy you've made your Mom and we're pretty happy too!! :) Kisses and hugs all around!!
that's great news, Val! :D I hope he continues to do better. :)
