First I will give a little update, then I shall reply to your posts.

We managed to coax him out of his doghouse about 2 hours ago, using stew meat - plus, he NEEDED to get out of there sometime to use the washroom. Then my mom gave him a little bit of stew/kibble and he drank a bit of water. Then he came inside and I had to clean his spots and put some ointment on them - which he did NOT like.

He's sleeping right now, he's got this pathetic/cute thing going on, I took some pictures. He looks real sad but cute if you know what I mean. I have a couple of stuffed toys so that his head is propped up and he's a bit more comfortable with the collar. He's laying down, kind of on his side so I think he's not TOO uncomfortable right now. I'm sleeping on the couch tonight - wanted to sleep on the floor but our foam pad thing is way up high in the garage and everyone is already in bed.

Den Anne Pen - we thought he was going to stay at the vets overnight too - so I was surprised when I got home and he was there. My mom kind of wanted him to stay there so they could watch him - and I did too, but we realize now he's getting way more care here and is most likely more comfortable.
They said that his temperature was borderline - they also checked his gums and they were fine. His nose is dry and really warm though.

Thanks for the link - thats what the vet had been doing to Major too.

THanks everyone for your prayers.
