Great news! I can just imagine how anxious you must feel to hold and love on Brodie. It is wonderful to read such good news.

Oh..Yeah! You'll have to post a ton of pics.... so happy for you!

Thinking of Brodie.

Brodies Mommy · 09-09-2010, 05:22 PM

hi everyone!

A Brodie update - he is home and somewhat comfortable. His incisions appear to be healing well!! He is no longer urinating out of his penis and appears comfortable with this! I can't say he is a huge fan of having a cone on his head... nor does he like that he has to stay in his cage or a tiny area. Brodie likes to sleep with his Mommy and sit on the couch - soon enough! I'm so glad he is home and not in pain. His congestion has gone away as well. He has been a tough little guy and appears to be having no complications.

Since his surgery he has also been eating like a little piggy! Easily twice what he usually eats and rather ravenously!! I'm not sure why this is as they couldn't fix his shunt... but he could use to gain some weight!

I am so happy to hear that Brodie is doing so well!

He is an adorable pupster! I loved the pic of him in bed!!

kjc · 09-09-2010, 08:58 PM

OMG! That is great...so glad he's feeling so much better.... Loved all the pics... what a little Momma's boy.... the look in his eyes... he loves his Mommie!

He's eating better bc he's feeling better... stones are painful, at the least very uncomfortable. When any system fails to function the body can't clear out the toxins, and that makes one not feel so good... hence poor appetite. When all that gets corrected and body is functioning better and pain is eliminated, appetite returns.

Is he on medications for the Liver shunt?

I'm really so glad he's home with you. What an ordeal this ended up being!
Give him extra hugs and kissies from us...

Wow! What you and Brody have been through. I just read through this entire thread - having not seen it earlier. Wow - what a road you have been on. You are a very strong person and Brody is very very lucky to have you. I found it interesting that the person in the beginning of the thread knew exactly what she was talking about (I see that she's banned now) but her execution, providing you with the direction you needed to take, was quite pushy. Its amazing how so many people on here - just from the information you have given - were more knowledgable than your own vet. I have found that when it comes to yorkies - and you need information - it is better to come on here and ask your question - rather than ask your vet. You have a greater knowledge here than anywhere else. AMAZING!!

Anyway, Fellow Long Islander, I'm glad your story had a happy ending and I wish your road ahead is nothing but healthy and happy.

Great news, thanks for the update. I hope it's smooth sailing ahead for you and Brodie. He is one lucky little dog that you love him so much. I know it hasn't been easy on you, or him.
