Default stomach virus

Took him back to the vet this morning. Had a bad night. While in the waiting room seemed completely recovered. My main concern for right now was whether he would become dehydrated. Only water he had was what I gave him through a syringe. Vet said he was mildly dehydrated and advised me on what to watch for. The "recovery" was adrenalin. Talked him into keeping him for the day and giving him an IV to rehydrate him. BTW this Vet is filling in for his primary Vet. who is away. I'll pick him up tonight and see how he is over the weekend. If he's not doing better, we'll probably take him to the hospital. We happen to live fairly close to one of the best Vet hospitals in the country, University of Pennsylvania Vetenary Hospital. That's for the comment. Will let you know the outcome. Kathy and Ed
