I look at Linus differently now. I'm afraid he's going to seizure. His little head bobs more now (I think). He's still active as anything (humping all his stuffed animals...sheesh!). I'm on complete brain overload right now, can't eat cause I'm so stressed out about this but I can't remember, once the blood tests confirm it's a shunt, I do have to go on for more diagnostic testing to confirm what kind of shunt??? I'm also concerned about his diet. I bought him canned puppy food this morning because I didn't feel he was eating enough of the wet/dry kibble and he loves it. The vet says she's not concerned about the protein right now, just that he's eating. I think we're going to worry about diet very soon...like when these results confirm the shunt then we'll think of diet. But I'm wondering since he's loving the canned food and eating a great amount, is this why his head seems to be bobbing more or am I just freaked right out. I'm sorry to ramble on! I'm soooo upset! I also phoned the breeder and asked if the results come back and it's a congenital defect, what is she going to do? She said they usually replace the puppy. I don't want another puppy and risk this again. We're are also in love with him and don't want to give him up. Forget it. She said she's very interested in knowing what the results are. She says it sounds like a head injury. Linus hasn't fallen at all. He doesn't even use the stairs yet cause he's so petite. Well I'd better let you all go. Holy I can ramble on!
