Not a good day so far


Not sure what the problem is. He just kind of went lethargic ealy this morning (4am). We are at a specialist hospital with him now. I think the doctors about shit themselves when they saw his size. He is at least 150 lbs. It appears (IMO) to be some thing with his neck, but what do I know… Fingers crossed

Update:
the blood tests came back normal, so it doesn’t appear it is a toxin that is causing it. the doctor says he doesn’t want to rule out meningitis, but there is not much they can do until monday. he is home with us now. he is not doing well, but at least he is home. his condition is continuing to deteriorate. i hope he passes quickly. i hate to say it. if he continues to deteriorate, we will probably have to take him back tomorrow to be put to sleep. poor dog :(

    Talon is 150lbs now?!??!?
    I don’t get it! You can’t confuse me like that!!
    If Talon is 150lbs then wow. Cause I’m only 105lb, and I’m pretty sure I’m taller than him. For now.

    That sucks. I agree with you though, better that he not suffer for an extended period…

    My parents had a dog with degenerative back problems (among other things) that really made her quality of life poor. When it got to the point where she couldn’t walk at all, they called a vet who actually came to the house to put her to sleep.
