Wordless Wednesday + Teutul Update

Happy rainy Hump Day.  Before we get wordless, I wanted to give a quick update on Tut.  He's had some more vomiting, still refuses to eat kibble, and just seems to be a little off.  Although you certainly wouldn't know it from this photo taken of him at the v-e-t just a couple hours ago.

Yes, we returned to the vet's office this morning and had to see yet another doctor, as both Dr. C and the vet we saw on Monday were off (and I show up with the happy, smiling "sick" dog). Fortunately, my vet's office has several great ladies who work there! Dr. B said they've been seeing a lot of GI issues lately and isn't quite sure if it's attributed to weather/allergies or what. She suggested we start with doing some blood work (including adding on the pancreatic test) and giving him subcutaneous fluids. While Tut seemed well hydrated on the outside, she suspected he likely had subclinical dehydration. My boy also got a famotidine injection and was sent home with an antibiotic. We'll be giving him FortiFlora once a day as well (which is rather perfect timing, as we're teaming up with our friends at Chewy to tell you more about this great probiotic in the month of October!). Fingers crossed the fluids do the trick of jump starting his GI track back to normal. Continued Power of the Paw requests, please...

And now, let's get wordless!

We use FortiFlora a lot. The boys and Morgan get it daily and the girls get it weekly unless one needs it more often for intestinal problems. It must taste good because they all dig in when I put it on their food. And best of all, it works.
