We took him to the emergency vet. He said it might be a brain tumor or a neurological (spelling) problem, and he was going to have us bring him to a specialist in the next few days. The next day, we took him in for bloodwork. That night around 10, he went into a horrible seizure and my dad ran him to the Emergency Vet. They couldn't get him out of it, and he ended up having to be put to sleep. Later that night, the blood results came back, and he had liver shunt.

We only had him for a little over a month, but its amazing how attached you can get in such a short time.

Sorry that was such a long story.

Carol - I wish a very happy birthday to Buddy!

Megan,
I believe I asked you once before about this. I believe we both got
our dogs from the same dealer, is that correct? American Breaders?
