    I am so sorry. I hope he gets well. This is just terrible. Please keep us posted.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Oh no, I never checked back on this thread-I thought he was doing better. Did the vet say anything about parvo? I would seriously get him checked for parvo, judging from what the symptoms are. An unvaccinated dog, that gets only one parvo booster, and is possibly exposed to it in a shelter environment is VERY susceptible to it. The vet I worked at ALWAYS recommended 2-3 boosters for unvaccinated adult dogs as well as puppies.

    Provided that's not the problem, hopefully it's just a bout of a GI irritation or something.

    Get well soon, Chipper.

    Edit: Maybe pancreatitis??

    Back from the vet. Prior I took him and Kia outside for a quick potty break. He had liquid diarreha and peed. I took Kia back inside and took Chipper over to the vet.

    He had more diarreha in the exam room and it looked pretty nasty.

    They took him back for the blood and when the Vet brought him out to me, he again squatted and this time it was bloody diarreha.

    They are running a full CBC panel. They'll call tonight with the results.

    She instructed me to give him another dose of meds when I got back, wait 45 minutes and then see if he'll eat a teaspoon of the ID. So I'll try to feed him at 6:45.

    I hate waiting...

    Oh Kimmy, of course you are worried. I'm so glad you took Chipper back in, though. Hopefully the vet can isolate the problem and get that boy feeling better soon.

    Thank you for keeping us informed.

    Kimmy, this doesn't sound good at all. Any chance Chipper could stay
    over at the Vets for monitering? I'll keep you & Chipper in my prayers.
