I HAVE GOOD NEWS! My Murph may be turning the corner, although I don't want to get too hopeful yet, because this also happened on Saturday evening, and then yesterday he was a mess again. I think that the additional medicine that the Vet prescribed yesterday is helping to relieve his symptoms. He's moving around much better now, which may be due to the anti-inflamammatory, and he ate his whole breakfast, which may be due to the anti-nausea/appetite stimulant. So this is all great news. He woke us up this morning and ran right to the kitchen for his food....he ate every single drop. Right now he's standing on the daybed barking at Guinness, and he's about ready to leap on him and take away his toy. I'm sure Guinness is thinking......He's baaack! Today was also the first day that he fought like crazy when we had to do the eye medications....the other days he was just too weak to fight it. So, I'm very encouraged by all of this. Today he may even get a little walk, and I have to get Guinness out to do something fun before that poor guy goes "stir crazy".
I'll keep you all posted. I have to talk to the Vet (an absolutely amazing, wonderful woman who I will forever have my gratitude) later this morning.
Thank you ALL again....Doodle Lovers Are THE BEST!!!!!!
So, glad to hear that he is starting off the day well. I'm sure Guinness is ready to get out and do something fun after not having his buddy for a few days! Hopefully you have a nice pretty fall day in CT to get out for a walk or something! Hang in there. You are a great doodle Mom and we will keep all of you in our thoughts!
This news is a wonderful way to start the day - Murph seems stronger today and ready to move beyond this nasty tick business. We all send best wishes that this is a lasting step in the right direction.
