I feel sick to my stomach that he is going through this. Lolasmom1211 and lolassister went to visit him today and took chicken but he just won't eat.  I am going to try to visit him tomorrow. I know they are all good to the pups in the ICU there, but I think it is always nice for them to have visitors when they are ill.
Poor Charlie. I hate that he is so ill. |
I'm sorry this happened to Charlie and all that you are going thru with it. I had a yorkie that refused to eat during her vet stays. Stubborn. The drs didn't want to release her to me but they finally let me feed her when she was in the oxygen tank. As soon as she was back in the house she was stuffing her face. Poor baby is probably all stressed out.
I too think it's awesome for them to have visitors and I think it helps with their healing process. Charlie is added to the prayer list in this house. Looking forward to reading some happy updates on him.
((HUGS)) hang in there!
