Wycket never had any surgery just x-rays, sonogram, test of the belly fluid and blood tests. We decided to try his current regement before going any further with other tests. Fortunately, we have had success.

The Royal Canin food is the dry food - Duck & Potato Light. Wycket didn't eat much to begin with and even less when he was ill. He lost body fat as I could feel his back bone extremely well when I would pet him. That was another symptom I missed at the beginning. He has gained back some body fat since his appetite returned and his backbone is not as pronounced as it was. We also watch his weight but he still doesn't eat much but he never did. He may consume 1/2-3/4 of a cup of dry food per day - and usually in the morning. The vet told me to just leave food out all day - right with another dog and cat in the house, Wycket would never get any.

My best wishes to your entire family.
