Sorry I haven't answered back in so long but it has been so hard taking care of Theo since he came home from the hospital Tuesday night. He has to take 5 different meds 2-3 X's a day and some can't be taken before others then there is the new Hill's Science Diet K/D because they were out of L/D ...and my vet doesn't totally agree with the hospitals findings so I am really confused and concerned. But my vet agree's he needs his blood tested again on Friday to see if he is still enemic then in a month another bile acid test to check his liver funtions. So till then we are babying him and trying to get use to this routine. Before this all happen they ate a dry mix of Halo & Nutro Max dry puppy food. Then they got nutro cal in the morning and wen we all got home from work. A morning snack of an organic peanut butter small biscuit from Whole Foods and in the evening another natural puppy biscuit from Petco I think it was by Old Mother Hubbards. But the week that he got sick I gave him a small serving of plain cooked ground beef. the night before he got sick he had a little turkey, mash potatoes & corn along with his little brother. Everything was home made and the only spice that was added ws a garlic clove that was cooked under the skin of the turkey and a little salt in the mash potatoes. But like I said before both puppies torn wallpaper down a few times and ate it a week prior to this and he also had the purple fuzz from his hartz tennis ball toy he got for Christmas in his throw up the morning this all began. The only thing I can say might help all yorkie owners to know is that liver problems happen quite often in this breed and if I could do it all over again I would not give them high protein diets. Buying the best foods isn't always good or too much of a good thing can be very bad. But until we are certain which we may never be it is hard to pinpoint this whole thing. It could be that by eating all the wallpaper, fuzz oh yeah and his wee wee pads that maybe his insides were irritated which caused the internal bleeding first then his liver which was probably over worked from all those toxins couldn't handle the extra protein he got days prior to getting sick since we did see black stool several times earlier that week. If and when i find anything new out I will let you all know and as always thank you for your continued prayers. |
