I had Kali yesterday while Nicole worked. I guess I tired her out! In other news, Louie has been diagnosed with pancreatitis. He has been sick for about 2 weeks. We brought him to the vet a few days after he first got sick and they put him on antibiotics and said it was from eating too much tables food, "garbage gut" they called it. He rallied a little and then seemed to go back and forth, one good day, one bad day. So I brought him back in on Tuesday and they took blood, and Pancreatitis it is. Not what I was hoping to hear at all, but the vet says we can manage it through diet. We have to be ultra careful what he eats, low fat high fiber. And he can never have a table scrap again, unless it is a fruit or veggie. Table scraps are Louie's life, so this won't be easy. But table scraps are what got him into this predicament, and it is all our fault. :( So, anyone with small dogs (they are more prone to it) keep them at a healthy weight, and table scraps are a no-no.
