so the vet wants to see if fluids help before inserting a feeding tube. she seems to think gavin is hurting but isn’t too worried (it’s not critical). i did emphasise that he’s deaf and needs touch a lot.
Everything I read seems to say that most dogs make a good recovery after a very intense 3-5 days. So I feel OK about that. I just miss him. Everything is so empty without him. And not being able to visit really sucks.
I am sorry to hear Gavin had to go back to the hospital. We are thinking of you both, and will continue a prayer that he recovers quickly and comes back home to you soon
I can only imagine how worried and lost I’d be if one of my dogs were in the vet’s and I couldn’t see them. Could you get them to iMessage you so you could see him ? It’s good that the vet doesn’t feel it’s critical, hopefully fluids help and he begins to improve quickly. We’re all here for you Cindy if you need to talk...
Ever since I got him back, we have been snuggling a lot. He'll sleep on my chest for an hour here or there. I just hope he doesn't get depressed. My neighbor's granddaughter works nights at the vets, and shes checking to see when shes scheduled next. A friend's wife is an internal vet at that vets office; she just walked over to see him and talk to the vet who is treating Gavin.
That’s great that you have friends who work there Cindy, I’d say he’s in great hands! Even if you can’t be there you have people you can call on...that’s the next best thing.
Oh Cindy, I am so sorry you and Gavin have been parted once again. I hope and pray you are reunited soon. I can’t imagine how difficult it must be for the both of you. So glad you can rely on these contacts to give you the support you desperately need now. Praying for your dear sweet boy!
