Completely puzzled and worried

HI

I'm late chiming in, because I've been on vacation.

Welcome to my world! I've been dealing with a wonky dog and wonky test results for about 2.5 years now.

Over the last month, Bacca has gone from exteme lethargy to extreme high spirits. Every day is a different day. Bacca is confirmed with hypothyroid and liver issues. Lately he is drinking water constantly which points now to potential kidney issues as well.

I'm making an appointment for him to get re-tested a little ealier because of that.

I expect the results to come back inclusive, as always.

Thr only thing I would suggest right now is looking at diet. What are your feeding currently?

Well, Blaze has not shown any signs of drinking a lot of water...no more than usual. I was in the midst of wanting to change his food..see other thread under diet...from Royal Canin Dental to Acana (I had bought 2 introductory bags and was waiting until this problem is rectified prior to changing...)

Since August 1st he has been on the Medi-Cal Gastrointestinal can and dry food. Which he was digesting up until yesterday when the diarrhea started.

This morning I gave a tablespoon of the can with about 2 level tablespoons of white rice. See how he does as I didn't feed him dinner last night.

I want to keep him well hydrated and the can will help until we get him to the hospital on Wednesday for his test and examination.

Didn't do too well...

At 4:10pm Blaze started vomiting again...twice bile...he seemed strangely okay after and even displayed his normal sign to want to go for a walk by 6:00 pm.; we started out and he was lagging behind (more than usual) and even walked a bit wonky...so back to the house he went. When I arrived back from the store he wanted to play!...so not sure but he seemed to have digested the small dinner given at 7:30 mostly rice and a tiny bit of the canned to keep him strong and hydrated until tomorrow's visit to the hospital. We will see, normally he is sick 8 hours after a meal and its 3:45 am, so far so good! Getting anxious for the hospital visit. : (
