Default Vet Visit

Okay so here is the update.

Last night the boys curled up on the bed with me for a bit last night but they did go in the kennel last night to sleep. By 6:30 am, Jack was spazing trying to get out. I got up to let them out to go bathroom and one of them had an accident (urine in the kennel). I got Jack to the vet this morning. The vet was nice enough to meet me before the clinic opened. I am so grateful for this vet.... he seems like a very nice guy and knows what he is talking about. He took lots of notes about what's been going on the past months. He said it sounds like there are a few different problems here. He says there may be a block in his GI system somewhere. He said that his intestines feel thinker than they should. His stomach doesn't seem to be pushing food through fast enough, which would explain why he doesn't eat much (food is still there so he feels full). They want to run xrays on him so they can see some stuff pass through and the timeline. They are also going to run a blood panel, check urine, and stool. They are keeping him today (not sure if it will be overnight yet). I should hear something later today. I was beginning to worry it might be diabetes but he never said anything about it.

Hopefully I get some good news later tonight. I'm going to try to get some sleep... didn't sleep well last night worrying about the pup.
