Owen has a piece of fine wire firmly embedded in the wall of his stomach. The vet said it looks like it's been there a while and isn't the cause of his immediate problem. He does not recommend taking it out. It sounds like Owen has gastroenteritis or pancreatitis and the wire in the X-ray was a red herring. So he's getting fluids and rest and we'll pick him up tomorrow.
He's a hound dog, catches squirrels and chipmunks, runs through the horse park, eats god knows what and rolls in horse poop. The vet said letting him be a dog is the best thing for him.
Mrs WD gave Owen Walter his name. She says a little dog needs a big name. It must work because he only weighs 10 pounds, but he has no idea he is little. He has the heart of Mastiff. Here he is at the park with his sister.
