Actually they were both on Halo for a few months prior tho this happening and I wasn't certain if he had eaten any cooked garlic since I only put 2 cloves under the skin and their meat came from deeper in the breast...so if they got any it was just the flavor or a tiny speckle. As time goes by I am thinking it was a combination of eating too much wallpaper,wee wee pads, stuffing, rug threads, toy fibers, pillow fibers and what ever else they got into when we were working and had no clue of. But there was never a huge amount of evidence in his stool at one time. I truly don't think the vets at the hospital or my vet is certain what it is either. So basically the poor lil guy has to go tonight and get poked once again to test his blood and see if he is still anemic (I am not looking forward to car ride since he panics the minute we take him near the door to leave and I am sure he will be shaking like a leaf when he sees he is going to the vets) We are going to see if he can come off some of the meds and ask what other dog food can he have that doesn't cost 31.00 for 12 cans. It makes me wonder if they prescribe this food since only they can sell it and make money. Then at the end of the month they will do the liver function test again...I am also searching the web for information on Liver problems and specialist in the area. Thank God he is running around once again although a little snippy but what the heck he was poked with needles for 5 days and held down and shaved not to mention a scope being stuck down his throat which could of caused the internal bleeding. So he has every right to be a little touchy. We will just keep showering him with love and hopefully he will get back to his lil ole self...
