The tiniest Otis is not himself. I picked him up from the groomer yesterday and his usual response was not there. He didn't wag, bark, run, jump... his tail was limp, his eyes were sad and he refused his favorite food treat. I took him to the vet and they were all shocked at his lack of self. They drew blood & urine we went home. He sacked out on the couch all night.
This AM he perked up a bit - but still miles from his personality. We dropped him off at Grammy & Papa's for day care and possible return to vet.
I just got off the phone with the Dr and he's got elevated kidney numbers, concentrated urine, high white blood count and he's dehydrated. He needs to go back in for the day to receive IV fluids, antibiotics and a follow up blood test.
We hope it's a quick kidney infection and not the start of kidney failure.
Say your puppy prayers.

Not the Otis :( He'll be in our thoughts. Hug him and love him for us and when he's feeling better go get him a dried cow penis or whatever that was you and Fuego were poking at each other.
