Pawsitive thought for Zeke, please; UPDATE Post 15

Poor Zeke. I'm glad the Vet found out the real problem at last. I'm
suprised that they couldn't detect the problem sooner by listening to the
chest. I hope he feels better soon.

Oh, poor Zeke. I will keep him (and both of you) in my thoughts.

We were surprised too.. I figured that when he didn't get better after the first round of meds, they'd suggest something else. I've known our vet for 16 years or so.. She's my mom's neighbor. Always thought she was good at what she did. And honest. The first time he went in, J took him to see the other vet in the office, who we don't like b/c Anita was on vacation.

He's home now.. and he ate some wet food. But he's still panting a little. He is definitely more comfortable and able to lay down. Now we just have to wait for the results.

Thank you. =)

I hope poor Zeke is feeling better tonight! ((hugs)) and pawsitive thoughts going out to Zz doggy, he's such a handsome boy

Well he had a hard time last night.. J was up with him a lot of the night. So since she got next to no sleep, she's staying home with him and also taking him back up to the vet for another chest tap. Hopefully they can drain more than they did the first time. Only took him a couple hours to start panting again. (Which I assume means his chest filled back up...)

*** Update: They were able to take out .5L of fluid this morning. They did an Xray afterward and said they can see some kind of nodules in his lungs.. so it's looking like lung cancer. No final answer yet though, as the test results aren't back yet.

It's sad when your pups are hurting & uncomfortable. I hope Zeke
feels better soon. Positive vibes for good tests results.
