hello everyone, princeton is back home! hes in his crate now, hes been very sleepy since hes been home and quiet. being in the hospital must have been so stressful for him & me(i cried myself to sleep las night after my boyfriend asks i wonder what prince is doing, if hes warm and sleeping) so i picked him up at the emergency hospital (they are soooo amazinggg) all the girls that work there fell in love with prince, they didnt want to give him back, i was like hand him over lady! lol so the good news, theres a very high possibility that it was just an episode of hypo even tho he does eat, he has been exercising alot more with his new pen.. the reason his glucose level was normal when i brought him in was bc i gave him karo syrup on his gums as the lady from the hospital instructed me to do immedietly b4 i brought him in.. so they sent him home with new prescription food, hills a/d? they say its good for dogs after surgery and stuff like that.

the bad news, its possible prince suffered from a seizure and we can not rule out a liver shunt until we get the rest of the results which will take another day or two. so for now we are told to treat it as a hypo case until the results come in :: keep your fingers crossed for no shunt::

so for now, im feeding prince his new food every 3-4 hours. its like starting all over, trying to get him to eat isnt easy. i put it on his nose, gums, hand feed, warm it up.. but he HAS to eat it. also, he is going to our regular vet on wensday. we had the appt. already bc he was supposed to get the 2nd set of his shots but he cant get them until we get the BAT results so its just going to be a regular check up and pick up some more food

right now i am giving prince SOOO much love. thanks for listening and caring. <3
