My best guess is that this was an extreme episode of anxiety due to the shower--which was longer than usual, and maybe the water was warmer than usual (the weather has been warmer too- his first experience of 'summer' weather) He always drinks lots of water in the shower (gross), but usually pees it out right away.
I think it was just a matter of shock. I've seen this before (when I first got him from the breeder--he experienced extreme separation anxiety, low blood sugar, vomiting, etc.) It all passed, and the $200 vet bill served me nothing- only a pepcid vaccine + a fluid injection to keep him hydrated. I've got that all covered on my own tonight, so I'm just going to keep an eye on him for anything really out of ordinary.
