Just in case,
get some Pedi-lyte..the kid stuff / water is great, but until he gets back to snuff, this stuff really helps with dehydration. Rika |

Great news. I am glad it wasn't IMT from vaccination. They are pretty tough creatures. Thanks for the update.

A good dog'll do that. Good to hear that he's back with his pack. Post a photo of all three when you get a chance. . God lives in the hearts of all dogs...and their caretakers.

He took him back this afternoon to get bag of fluids dripped into him. Once again we took the Porsche ambulance. He walked in under his own power, wobbly but on his own and didn't fall once. When we got home we walked around the house and he went right to the ground hog hole that he harrasses every day. He decided then and there to wait for him to come out. Terriers! I made him come around the other side of the house and he fell asleep out in the leaves for about an hour then I made him come in. He made it to the rug in the entrance way and has been sleeping there since about 5 pm. I told the vet about the pedialite and she said maybe tomorrow as every time we put something in his stomach it comes back out one end or the other. I will try freezing Gatoraide tomorrow too, as he likes ice cubes. Makes the hair on my arms stand up when he chews them. More tomorrow. Thanks and good night.

In your last posted photo, Big H looked pretty zonked on his sheepskin.
Relieved...and zonked. . Electrolytes in Gatoraide > ice cubes...smart idea. Yer a good Daddy.

He is still pretty zonked. Made the trip for a bag o fluids today. Today he made it up to the couch and he is sleeping soundly. Today he acts more alert, but stil really sick. He's gotta eat soon, he's pretty weak. I was told only a quarter cup of water or Gatoraide at a time today to see if he can keep anything down.

they also seem to like it when you cook the rice with a bit of chicken or beef broth.
Sounds like he's definitely on the road to recovery.

yes I think so too. Hopefully we can get some food in him in the next couple of days. Thankfully he is "big boned" so he won't starve to death.

Slow road back, but sounds encouraging.
. targa911S: "I wish I was my vet!" No kiddin'. If for nothing else, to save a wad 'a ...  . Yes on chicken... I used to do rice and boiled chicken breast (finely chopped) and no spices/herbs/salt/pepper. Painful when they have no appetite. I asked my g/f, the Dr. and puppie guru-ette, about Pedialyte...she said she always has a bottle or two on hand. She said that once opened, it can go bad fairly soon...so she has the small containers. Also, said they have Pedialyte Freezer Pops. She said, "Since Big H is an ice cube guy, he might like those." BTW, she sends her best. . http://www.pedialyte.com/thisispedialyte/variety.cfm . Edit: What the hell, you could just make his ice cubes out of reg. Pedialyte.

Not eating yet but he is keeping water down. Looking better today.
 The two them hogging the couch...no room for Dad, but Buddy is glad his big brother is feeling a little better. They look like bookends.

You just simply can't love'em enough.
