I thought I was pampering him but I was hurting him. Since then he has only he has endured HGE a couple of months ago, and I have been up with him last night hoping he is not trying to go thru it again. I bet my neighbors think I am a crazy lady when I take him for walks and stop to examine his poo after he has done his business. I called yesterday every couple of hours to ask the kids how their lil brother was feeling...but I digress.. The important thing is catching these things in time and being very picky what goes in those little stummies. You sound like a very attentive mommy and have not made the mistakes I did. He is lucky to have you. I will pray for his complete recovery and give him puppy hugs from "The Gizzard". |
Pixie had Pancreatitis last year and her intestines were full of ulcers. She is chronic and is on a special diet. Last week she was hospitalized with HGE for a week. I was told it could happen again. She's not the same as before her Pancreatitis attack. I don't know what to expect next. She can't go outside, her immune system is compromised and she can't have anymore inoculations. Pixie will be 6 on May but I never thought she would see her 5th birthday. She was never sick the first 4 years of her life. It is hard to see them suffer. I doubt if I would ever get another Yorkie. I owned 3 Yorkies years ago and never went through anything like this.
I hope your Buddy has a complete recovery.
