Talked with Krystal this morning to check up on Melody. I see in her post the she explained the Melody was bloated. This sometime happen when the change in food occurs and the added medications.
Melody had have now "pooped twice". Her tunny is bad to normal and is better this morning. Krystal's vet and also the specialist her said it would take a few days for medication to start clearing out bacteria from the system.

I'm expecting a call later this afternoon from the specialist with recommendations pertaining to Melody. Spoke with a few doctor's yesterday and even though surgery maybe an option, it's not always the necessary means to solve the problem. A lot of facts have to be taken in consideration
and even thought surgery many be indicated, it's not always the best option. Especially when you referring to a very small yorkie and in this case Melody falls in this categories.

If Melody starts to show any discomfort and problems, I told Krystal to call the vet and get any medications necessary. At this point Melody needs to gain a little weight and clear the toxins from her system.

I'm not trying to keep any information from any our members. I've tried to post when necessary but felt that Krystal needs to express her feeling through her own posts. I'm keeping in close contact with her to make sure she knows all she has to do is make a phone call.

Their's more but I'll post after I finishing reading the posts and PM. Sorry about the delay.

Im glad you updated but in my humble opinion this is all just speculation on your part...... I honestly find it ODD that any specialist would make an assumption with out physically LOOKING at Melody? My vet wont even give me meds for a simple ear infection or diagnose my puppy with one with out me brining her in and her LOOKING at her ears....
You mention a specialist.. Has Melody seen one as of yet.
I think it is wonderful that you are a phone call away but you stated earlier that Melody is 3 1/2 hours from you , that is a 7 hour round trip visit if something would happen to Melody!!
Id honestly still like to know what made you make the decision that Melody is better off in her current home with a owner who doesnt have the money to care of her. It is my opinion that you are making decisions based on phone calls, I find it odd that none of these DRS have said I NEED OR WANT TO SEE THIS PUPPY BEFORE I CAN MAKE ANY RECOMMENDATION. I have personally seen a puppy weighing less then 3 pds make it out of a sucessful Liver shunt operation... she lives a good live.
Speculation is NOT going to get his puppy anywhere!
