The vet just called - Snoopy is coming home at noon! They would have liked to kept him until later this afternoon or early evening but he is throwing a tantrum - pulling off his bandages and tearing out the port and tearing up his blankets etc. so they are ready to get rid of him. The vet said he ate well this morning so he would like to give him more oral medicine before sending him home but since Snoopy is not cooperating he thinks it would be best if he was at home with his mommy.

Amy, he did tell me that the fat in the blood was something that happened more commonly in Schnauzers. I just looked at Snoopy and said I didn't think there was any Schnauzer in him. Thanks for the information though. He will be eating a prescription diet from the vet right now. I am not sure when or if he will get to go back to regular food.
