GOOOOD NEWS! His results came back and he doesn't have ehrlichia. That means his body was attacking his own platelets. I forgot the technical term for this but it has no known cause.

He's on crate rest still and taking his meds and getting stronger. He's very happy he has a whole room to himself at the shelter. He puffs his chest out and prances when he walks by any other dogs In 2 months he'll go to a foster home for his heartworm treatment.

We'll be weaning him off his meds next week as long as his platelet count is normal.

He's such a special boy
