Brandon seems to be quite popular with vet visits recently, every time we get something "dealt with" another issue comes up.
Brandon had just finished his antibiotics (for the UTI issue) last Friday, and started vomiting quite often throughout the following days, on Tuesday it was decided to take him to the vet - which is when it was determined that Brandon must of swallowed a "foreign object", so it had nothing to do with his UTI issue.
He stayed the night at the vet's office on Tuesday, and Wednesday afternoon it was decided to go ahead and do surgery, since Brandon hadn't stopped vomiting.
The vet discovered a small "stuffed polar bear" in Brandon, which of course wasn't his (since he's been eating "everything" insight recently - all "stuffed toys" have been off limits for him), but he still managed to get ahold of a stuffed toy...
Brandon is doing much better now, but is now NEVER let out of sight. Ever since he got back from his 9 day stay at the specialist (for his UTI issues) he has decided he needs to get into EVERYTHING, his house manners went back to zero - though his "public manners" stayed "mostly" the same (thank goodness!). Brandon is now on leash most of the time while inside the house, which he's not enjoying much at the moment!
Hopefully he's done with vet emergencies for the time being, but I can tell you right now that his UTI issues are not gone...

ReplyDeletea stuffed polar bear???
Mom Julie was just thinking that a puppy's training can be a challenge anyway, but to have to do both, training for service and training just to be a good doggie must be overwhelming sometimes!! xx
Hugs to you, hope you get better soon! And, paws up to your trainer!!

hey Brandon,
ReplyDeleteSo furry happy to hear you are healing. Sorry about the stuffy in your belly and so furry happy the Vet got it out. I have first paw experience with eating toys and having issues from eating toys, so I feel your pain. Hope you get things under control so that you can once again enjoy the fun of stuffy play without your human worrying that you will eat it!
