Rusty's not good

How's Rusty doing?

He's alright, not too good, but fine. He ethier peeded or threw up this morning, we found some liquid on the floor :/

He ate a slice of boloni (sp?) and some small pieces of porkchop and a tiny bit of milkshake. But, those are the only things he wanted to eat. My dad smashed up the pill (he needed to take) and put some into his water then some into the milkshake.

He still isn't fully himself, he walks around with his tail down and just wants to lay down all day. I hate being home to see him like this, so I'm usually out.



Hopefully he'll be back to normal soon, I hope.

So Rusty went to the vet again today. They took some bloodwork to see if there might be some other problems.

He is still skiddish, he doesn't wag his tail much and lays around all day.

But at vets he did try to go after a dog, he was crying and trying to get at it. He was also wagging his tail at these two little kids in the waiting room though. He just needs to start eating.

Tonight he ate 6 pieces (it was cut into slices) of sausage, and some pediasure drink. So atleast he has some food in his system.

The vet said he could maybe even a month without eating, it wouldn't be good. But, is he refused to eat he'd be able to do it, since the fat would be there.

Hopefully he'll eat soon, and get back to normal. I don't think he'll ever be able to fully do what he use to though after this, since he use to chase animals in the yard and such which isn't good to do anymore since he could hurt himself.

Ah geez Rusty, I was hoping you were feeling better. Try to eat buddy. Hopefully soon you'll be just a bit back to yourself.
