I just got off the phone with Pam's son in law - and he is home with Rusty now. The blood work showed everything normal - and Rusty seems to be feeling better - up and moving around and wagging his tail. The vet seems to think it was a severe intestinal irritation - and to just watch him very closely. He still isn't eating though.
I only had a dog for a little over a year - so I am not as experienced in all of the signs that dog owners would know in a flash. When my kitties are even the slightest bit "off" I can tell right away.
How can they be so desperate one minute and then back up and running around the next to me is amazing.
I just hope that I can continue to give you good news.
Slick I will email you right now..........xxoo Gini

Wow, I'm glad that the bloodwork came back normal and that Rusty is doing better. I wonder what could have happened. He's such a sweet, big love...and I certainly hope he continues to get better! Thanks for keeping us updated, and if you see Pam, give her a hug for me!
**hugs**

Thanks for the update Gini. I'm so glad to hear that his blood work is fine and that he's doing better. :) Now hopefully he'll also begin to eat soon. Please continue to keep us updated. More prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

Glad to hear Rusty is feeling better!

Will keep Rusty in my prayers. Glad to hear that he's doing better.

Gini, I simply didn't have the emotional strength to come here, yesterday, and read about Rusty. I'm so glad he is showing signs of improvement. What a beautiful Golden face he has. Slick I'm so glad you had a picture of him to post.
Keep us posted, and I promise to keep checking in.

Rusty will certainly be in my thoughts now that I have found this. Poor boy, I wonder what on earth happened to him.

I just talked to Pam again and Rusty has eaten a full meal and also drank a lot of water.
What could this bug have been that would have affected him so rapidly and then have him recover fairly rapidly as well?
I do know that Pam's son had the flu and was very sick himself and he was around Rusty - but human's don't transmit these conditions to dogs do they?
I have passed all of your well wishes and hugs on to Pam - she asked me to thank each and every one of you - she is so grateful and believes that Pet Talk prayers have a great deal of power.

Oh Gini, I was so terrified to read to the end of the thread. Thank goodness he is doing SO much better:) Lord knows what our puppers get into to, to get these sudden intestinal bouts:( Poor Pam must have been beside herself Heartfelt prayers for beautiful Rusty's swift and complete recovery! Please give my love and well wishes to Pam and to Rusty!:)
