Laurie, I am sorry to hear of your sudden loss of BooBear.

Thanks for asking about Bandit, Sandra. He is miraculously still hanging on. His quality of life is very good. The vet is amazed! The Rutin is really helping (of course he takes massive doses!!) So far, so good!! They don't know how long it will stay this way, but for now, he is doing wonderfully! My parents are so thankful for the prayers from all you PetTalkers and contribute his miracle to that!

Even when things seem hopeless, there can still be a ray of hope. It happens. I believe in miracles. I am praying for Blaze and Cody to have miracles happen, too!

{{{hugs to all}}}

BooBear must have been a very special dog.

I know how it hurts to lose your heart dog and my heart goes out to you. But now you have a Shiba Inu puppy!!

Have you met "lovemyshiba's" Kito?? He's a cutie!!

Hope to hear more from you and Byakko!! And hopefully, some pics!

Oh thank you so much, Mary, but Bandit is miraculously still with us! He takes a huge amount of meds each day, but he is doing really well!! The fluid is not building at the moment and he eats well most days. He is still enjoying life. Of course, at any minute that can change because his prognosis is unknown, but for now, he is fine!! Thanks anyway!
