Just checking in on Hobbs Rebecca .... email me at work when you get this and let me know how he is if you have time. I hope he is feeling better this morning and takes a BIG poopie for his mommy - hee, hee!! :p |
just checking in to see if hobbs has pooped yet. hopefully you'll get a nice surprise this morning and then he'll be feeling better |
Hi everyone! Hobbs was up and down all night. He kept acting like he needed to go outside but when I took him out, he would just stand there. This morning I took him on a walk and guess what........he POOPED!!!:cheer: :cheer: :cheer: BUT, he's still shaking and his tummy is still a little firm. I think I'm going to stay home this morning with him and go get him some canned pumpkin to feed him and see if that helps and then go into work this afternoon. Do yall think he is still constipated or could there possibly something else wrong with him? I'll call the vet around 8 and see what they say. I'll keep yall updated. Thanks again for all the well wishes and prayers. Yall are the greatest! |

yeah, he pooped! :) If I were you, I would get the pumpkin, maybe also giving him some fruit, like strawberry. I would call the vet if he doesn't poop by noon again and he's still shaking a little |
Does the pumpkin usually work fast? |
Ok I woke up this morning and the first thing I said to myself was "I sure hope Hobbs has pooped" :) I'm glad he did! Let us know what the vet says~ |
How is he doing today?????? :confused: |
He is still acting like he's not feeling good. Poor baby. I'm going to call the vet at 8 and see what she wants me to do. |
do let us know what the vet says ... glad he pooped though! yay!!:) |
Hi, I just saw this - poor little Hobbs! Did you call the vet yet? Not that it's funny, but there's a large group of people praying for Hobbs poop to come out. Kiss his sore little tummy. I'm glad you were able to stay home. (Judy from 4WT) |
I hope Hobbs is feeling better! |
OMG Rebecca, how could I have missed this thread??!!??!! Poor Hobbs!! I'm glad he finally pooped but that poor angel must have one massive tummy ache! Give him get well kisses from me and my gang and please keep us updated on his condition! |
Well, I called the vet this morning and they said to give him some pumpkin and then see how he was doing at lunch. I got a call and HAD to come into work this morning. I was too worried to leave Hobbs by himself so I took him to the vet and they are going to watch him today. Please continue to keep him in your prayers. He's obviously still in distress and I'm really worried about him. :( :( :( |
So sorry little Hobbs isn't feeling well. Sending prayers your way!! |

Can you keep us updated and sending kisses to that little doll |
aww poor hobbs has to spend the day at the vet. Hopefully when you pick him up he'll be 'empty' and feeling better |
Oh no, I am so sorry! Bobbi had a similar experience and they did X-rays to find out he had an enlarged colon-empacted with fecal matter. He got meds and I fed him Baby Gerber and pedialyte for a few days. Will be praying! |
OHHH BECCA!! I feel for you.. when Maddy was at the vet it was horrible for me.. I know he will be fine.. maybe he might just have some gas or something of the sort....I hope he gets better really soon and so so sorry for missing this thread up until now... Will keep you both in my thoughts today... .sending good vibrations and Gizmo sends his buddy Hobbs lots of hugs... |
Thanks guys! I called the vet on my lunchbreak to see how Hobbs was doing and to see if I could pick him up. The vet said she still wanted to keep him for a little while longer and possibly do some bloodwork this afternoon. Hope it's nothing serious! I'll keep everyone updated! Thanks again for the well-wishes and prayers. |

It's good that he's at the vet - cuts down on your worrying while you're at work. Prayers that the blood work shows nothing, and that he just needs to poop. |
Sending prayers and hugs that Hobbs gets better. Starlene mom to Taffy & Baby and soon to be mommy to little C. J. |
Sounds like Hobbs is in good hands. Good luck. |
They did bloodwork and everything is 100% perfect. She is going to do an abdominal x-ray just to be safe and call me when she gets the results. |
Good, good, good! |
I'm soooo sorry you're going through this... He's definitely in my prayers. Hope everything looks OK on the x-ray. |
FINAL RESULTS ARE IN!!!!!!!!!!! The abdominal x-ray showed some fecal matter in his colon but it was NO impacted. She said the x-ray DID show that his anal glands needed to be expressed. She said when the anal glands are NOT expressed they fill up and it is painful for them to potty when they are full and they try to hold it. This is most likely what Hobbs was doing.....holding his poop bc it was painful for him to potty bc his anal glands were full. So, she expressed the glands and he is good to go now! YIPPEE!!!!!!!! The prayers and well-wishes definately paid off. Thanks everyone SO MUCH! I truly appreciate everything! |
Dancing around the office in celebration!!!!! I'm so happy he's OK! |
Thank You! Meeeeeee Too!!!!!! |
