Now I know why Regen wasn't particularly interested in playing when he first arrived at my house! We spent some time at the animal emergency vet on Wednesday evening because Regen had been vomiting all day. Turns out the poor boy had a blockage in his large intestine. No wonder he was so "mellow!" He was feeling puny! I'm happy to report that Regen is free of his blockage and no surgery was necessary. He is absolutely a brand new dog now! He is funny and playful and very very happy. My vet thinks he's only 1-2 yrs old and his behavior is most definitely "puppy-like." He's doing very well in the house, he hasn't had any potty accidents. He's starting to play with toys and chew on things. I've discovered he's a shoe chewer so I am making sure to keep all my shoes out of his reach. He's very loving and affectionate and LOVES attention. This picture is Regen and his "foster sister" Lula having some cuddle time.
OMG, what was the blockage? I know the folks in MO said the first two days, the only thing that "came out" of them was rocks and straw. Was the 'blockage' identifiable?
ReplyDeleteGlad he's feeling better and settling in with his new temporary "siblings" in your home. Can't wait for more updates and photos!
