I asked if I could just take him home and then bring him back in the morning and he laughed and said that would be fine. I just wish they would have been able to find something today. This has been going on since Monday evening. He said sometimes they will just bounce back after about 48 hours of antibiotics and fluids. Let's hope and pray that this will happen. My husband is getting upset because of the cost of it all! To me it doesn't matter what it costs. He is our baby. Thanks for all of your advice and encouragement. I'll continue to keep you posted on how he is doing.
yeah next time when they run blood work have it all done at once as doing one blood work up after another is stressful on the dog so when they did the blood pull for wbc they should have run the full panel and cpli since a yorkie is real prone to pancreatitis and he was exhibiting symptoms.

I am glad he is doing much better

the vet was correct that the cpli is best test for pancreas as amylase and lipase are also indicators but sometimes those can be off as were with my dog when he was sick his amylase and lipase were normal when feeling better they were off the charts
