Tank again!!!!

So I brought Tank home Tuesday and he seemed to be ok. He ate his dinner and also seemed fine on Wednesday. Thursday was very different.....he wouldn't eat and he has to in order to get all his pills down without getting sick. He was basically frantic all morning , I was scared enough to call the vet that worked on him and ask what I should do. I had already tried a ton of different foods, and believe me Tank loves to eat, so they suggested I bring him in. Wasn't too happy with that idea, it's not that far, but tons of traffic all day. But we made the trip. One funny thing, Tank was standing in the seat next to me looking out the window, and a woman drives next to us and said he was the cutest thing she'd ever seen!!! I think so too!! Luckily they took us in immediately, diagnosis....he had nausea. I've had enough surgeries to know that and wondered why they hadn't send some anti-nausea meds along with me. Oh, they just don't.....not all dogs need them. After a shot, some more new meds and another big bill we were on our way. Have to say he has been great since then, but wow. And we have to go back again Monday!!!! He is feeling better and we'll find out what the doc says then. Keep sending good thoughts....we need them!!!!

  1. I'm so glad Tank is feeling better! He looks great, even if a bit sad. I'm sure the next few days are going to be more difficult as he starts getting more mobile and still has restrictions on him. Good luck with that!
    Give him a big smooch for me!
