Captain Blunty, I hope the news continues to be good! I had one dog who kept losing weight even though he was eating twice as much as my other dogs. It turns out he had a pancreatic problem. He’s ok now, on enzyme supplements – a bit expensive, but the Bouncer-boy is worth it!
I hope your little guy comes home well and happy. It’s so easy to get attached to these guys.
It seems it’s good news all around! The vets have been offering food to him since around two o’clock, and he has been eating and keeping it down. To qoute the vet, he has been “buzzing” most of the afternoon, wanting to play! If he keeps his food down, he can come home with me tomorrow!
As soon as he gets home I’m going to hold him on my lap, and read this thread to him! He may not understand, but I want him to know that the wonderful people at the SDMB were rooting for him!
