:(:(:(
I woke up at 0530 this morning...made coffee, checked my email, then the wife comes down and say's that our boxer "Cain" doesn't look right. I go upstairs and hes sitting on the bed...staring at the bare wall, with his ears laid back. He acts like he can't get off the bed himself, so I help him down, and he just stands there, with a pitiful look on his face. He eventually makes it downstairs, then acts like he's too weak to climb up onto the sofa. Doesn't want to go outside (usually he really needs to go!) won't eat or drink. I call the vet and they say to go ahead and bring him in NOW. He'd slept with us, but had spent about 2 hours in his crate yesterday, so I check the crate for any evidence of him being sick. I find 2 strips of plastic bag that he apparently regurgitated at some point...but they were dry...so no telling when that happened.
I have to carry him to the truck, but he did walk from the truck to the vet's office. He finally pee'd in the parking lot....and wagged his stub a bit when the doc came into the room, but he's just not himself.
Doc kept him for x-rays and possible blood work...it's been 2.5 hours now and it's driving me nuts!
