Winky was stabilized at the vet after he was put on oxygen for two hours. He has an enlarged liver and spleen and he had a lot of fluid in his system. We were able to take him home at 6pm tonight. The vet basically said it would get worse and worse...
They gave him another med too, so they added Spironolactone to what he was already taking.
So he's currently taking:
Pimobendan
Furosemide
Spironolactone
Enalapril
His tongue has been a bit cold tonight, as are his ears, which is really abnormal. We figured out that cold tongue and ears was probably from giving him a bath earlier. He has a sweater on and did eat some food. He just seems very tired and a bit lethargic.
From the bottom of our hearts, we appreciate all the good thoughts, messages, posts and prayers for Winky. We feel very blessed that we can give him the best healthcare we can and we are thankful we have such a great community here at YorkieTalk. We hope that each and every sick and injured Yorkie can get the support that Winky has received. If you were here, Winky would lick you all over and give you all his lovin'! Perhaps that's why he has such a big heart, because he just loves and loves and loves.
Here's Winky laying on a blankie this evening...
