Charlie has never been small he weighed about 5 lbs when I got him and he is 12 now. He doesnt vomit and he rarely has diarrhea but his stool is soft rarely a firm stool. He does have a confirmed dx of pancreatitis the trouble is those stones.... they are just not the kind a yorkie should have. I have just been sick all day knowing we have to have the test tomorrow. and then to have to wait 3-5 days for results. He does get his stiches out tomorrow so that will be good he needs a good groom he has one front leg they shaved part of and one back leg they shaved part of he kind of looks like a hobo or a really fuzzy pear of slippers
Please keep him in your prayers tonight. He cant eat after 900pm so im gonna make sure he gets something tastey
