::hugs:: my thoughts will be with you

Continued hugs and prayers, Duchess.

Continued prayers for the pup!!! Hope everything goes well for the hubby too!
Keep your chin up!!!

Thanks guys. It's a roller coaster for sure. Got good news on the dog this morning <liver and pancreas enzymes are back to normal>; however he's not absorbing protein properly. They're going to continue to work with that and take it one day at a time.

one day at a time sounds like a good idea.

A little late to this one, but I wanted to tell you my thoughts are with you. You and your family (human and furry) sure do have a lot put upon you this week...

Hoping that you only get good news on your baby (furry one) from here on and that hubby is doing okay as well. Roller coasters are hard on you - hang in there and know that good thoughts and prayers are coming from your friends on BOL.

Is your husband's face huge because you decked him? That wasn't very nice

On a serious note, you're still in my prayers, and I hope it goes back to good news. But at least it sounded like you were somewhat prepared if your pet did not get to come home.

Gabe's bloodwork is back to normal; however he still is having diarrhea. They're gong to start yet another drug today and try feeding him. Poor little guy has barely eaten because they want to prevent any more intestinal irritation. He's starving. They are also giving him probiotics now, too.

Hopefully we can visit him tomorrow. He's been in there a week and probably thinks he's been abandoned, but the vet said the ladies are giving him a lot of attention and think he's just the sweetest thing. Well, he is.

Sending waggy tails from my pups to yours! He will be so happy when you walk through that door!!

The Wonder Twins are sending kitty love to you.

I just got a call from the vet's office. Gabe is coming home this afternoon.

Thank you everyone for your continued prayers.

oh good news! i surely hope he'll be ok

Good news, Duchess!

(i have no idea why Bailey. would call you Shirley, though...)

Great to hear this, but don't worry, I will withhold my excitement to avoid a return to the vet

you turkey

Yah!!!!!!!!!! Glad lil pup is coming home!

Now both of you will feel better once he's home!!! I'm so happy for you both.

Lots of lovin in your house later! So glad to hear he is coming home. Enjoy the homecoming.

Great news!

YAY!!!!

hey duchess - hope your hubby and your furry friend are doing well. lots of stress for you. take care of yourself too. i'm sure you'll rest easier with your furry friend at home.

i can't imagine leaving my whippet at the vet when he was hit by a truck (i got her to agree to let me care for him).

Gabe's home and very thin. He went from 26.5 pounds to 23.5 pounds. I can feed him 1/4 of the can of dog food they provided 4 times a day - and he has two prescriptions twice a day. He's only supposed to go out on a leash; however since we have a dog door that's next to impossible and we don't want to cage him up. He did sleep the entire night by my side of the bed and this morning appeared back to 'normal' again. He was disoriented when I picked him up, but I equated that to when my aunt was elderly and had to go to the hospital.

Thanks everyone for your prayers, thoughts and kind words. He's home, but there's still more work to do and care to give.

Yeah for Gabe! Do you have a gate or something (maybe a folding chair would work) to keep him out of the room with the the dog door? Or can you tether him to something in the house? That's worked well for me. There have been times I had leashes looped around furniture legs in several different rooms.

I'm late to this thread, but YAY for Gabe being home and feeling better!
