So please see that Moose gets plenty of liquid by mouth if not done via a drip into the skin, sub Q. I guess your vet will advise if home or vet hydration is needed. Perhaps you caught the disease early enough to be treated? That is good news. Hugs to you and Moose.
As you have another dog, the vet might also advise the SDMA test to hopefully prevent a shock like this again. But I have little knowledge of this test.
Again....I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep him hydrated for sure. Also will have to ask Vet about the SDMA test. We went ahead and feeding both Moose and Mimi the Hills RX KD kibble. Easier to have both on same.
