Robyn, Arthur and I are sending you both GREAT BIG hugs and puppy kisses!! (the puppy kisses are from Arthur, not me. )

I'm so sorry to hear you're going thru all of this. I can only imagine how frustrating it must be. If you only knew what he was alergic to. It's the not knowing which is worse than anything I think. Your grandparents are starting to tick me off I'm sorry to say. You're being a lot nicer than I would. I'd be marching up there and really going off on them! And I'd hit them where it's hurts too... "You could be killing him! Then it'll be on YOUR conscience!" But then, I'm kinda vindictive like that... Lord knows Arthur would eat everything in the fridge if I let him. It doesn't mean he's hungry, it just means he's a puppy. I'm just sorry you have to go through all of this.

I hope you can find some way to get Jasper to PEI and to the right vet. If I lived closer I'd be totally willing to help you out. Who was it that suggested some of the PTers offer help? That might not be a bad idea. I'm sure we could get something organised, if someone wanted to. We could open a PayPal account or something, ask for donations then get a check and send it to you to help with transport and vet bills. I'd be willing to help out with that too, definitely.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, and I'll light a candle with a thought for Jasper and hope for health. Hang in there, kiddo! We're all right behind ya!
