Oh my, I actually had my fingers crossed when I opened this thread today. So sorry to hear he's not recovering as well as we'd hoped. Please have him hospitalized, he needs IV for hydration and nutrition, poor little guy, my heart is breaking for him and you...If your vet won't keep him for IV therapy, find one that will, this has been going on for too long, and he has one step forward then 2 steps back. The tarry stools has me VERY concerned, could be bleeding internally, unless any of his medications will cause this change in stool color(some do). He has already lost blood from his bladder, he may very well be anemic, do they give dogs transfusions? I know they often do that with people, when they've had a great deal of blood loss, but then you have to stop the source of bleeding. Still sending lots and lots of prayers, Mickey, please get well soon...
