<DIV>I have put off asking because of all the others who need it more but if
there is a little left over, could you please send it to Crackers who drools
mightily for everyone else. He started refusing food a week ago Mon and then
would only eat one thing each day, i.e. bread, vienna sausages, chicken,etc. He
did continue to drink normally the whole time. Friday he had several bouts of
diarrhea and I took him to the vet on Sat. He had lost 5 lbs in two weeks but
she didn't find anything remarkable. He got an anit-nausea drug and
antibiotics. His appetite has gradually picked up and he has been eating
kibble the past two days but he only eats about 1/4 cup at a time so I
am feeding him several small meals a day. His personality is back but what
worries me is he is very wobbly in his hind legs. At first I thought it was
due to strain of having to walk around a frozen snow filled back yard for two
weeks but the ice and snow cleared up the past couple of days and
he has not improved. He goes back to the vet in a week for followup. I am not
letting him climb stairs and have made him a "nest" on the family room
floor with comforters and quilts so he won't be tempted to get on the
furniture. Hopefully he improves but we need a little help right now.</DIV>
<DIV>It was 3 years ago on 3/11 that he bloated and spent 4 days in a coma at
the vetspital. I was praying this had nothing to do with that as was my
vet.</DIV>
<DIV>Also, I have done Crackers a great disservice by telling people he
was 12-13 years old. My vet checked the records and he is actually 11
years young!</DIV>

Crackers is getting) and Jordan. </DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
