Schnauzer sickness returns

Update: I heard from the vet and Morey's test for pancreatitis came back positive. Poor dude is at the vet getting fluids, a shot for the pain, a shot so he doesn't vomit, and a shot of antibiotic. We will pick him up later this evening and hopefully he'll be feeling better by then. *sigh* At least we know what's wrong and can get him on the right meds to get him all better.


*sigh*


Morey's at the vet this morning. We didn't feed him last night because he obviously wasn't feeling well and had horrible gas. This morning he gets up and goes out and decides to eat half the lawn. Joy. I try to dry off his paws and he won't even stand up to put his paws on my knees like usual. I'm thinking...this is NOT good. He comes back in and all he wants to do is lay on my belly...NOT a good sign. I could feel his belly cramping up and each time it would he'd whimper and push his face under my chin. I laid there crying and decided it was time for him to go to the vet. I dropped him off and they'll do the usual battery of tests I'm sure...


I just need my little boy to get patched up and be well.

Oh I am sorry, there is nothing worse than having a sick puppy. I freak out when my dogs are not felling well...which seems to be all the time now that we live in Idaho. I think it has to do with the weather here. Anyway, I will say a little prayer for you 4 legged friend.

Oh honey, I'm so sorry! I know schnauzers are prone to the pancreas problems. Hopefully the meds will work quickly and he'll be back to his old self in no time. Morgan and Spencer send love. (they'd send money for vet bills if they could because we know how expensive it is!) Good luck. Tell Leah no copying!
