Raider and Addie just turned 6 months old. Last night about 10PM, Raider started throwing up. At 2am, I took him to the ER and an x-ray showed something in his stomach. They put him on an IV and watched him during the night. Today, they took two more x-rays and gave him an enema. Blockage still hasn't moved but he did have a big bowel movement. He is still throwing up even with several doses of anti-nasea medication. They are going to take x-rays at 10PM tonight and if the blockage still has not moved, they will recommend exploratory surgery.

Addie and Raider will eat anything they can get their mouth on. We watch them closely and they are always on a leash, but even so they occasionally are able to enjoy a big fat bug or a baby frog.

We ask that you send up a prayer for our little guy. Addie seems lost without him. The vet asked use to be at the clinic at 10:30, so wish us luck.
