@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot so much nature outside but seems even more nurture inside. Lovely photo.

[DeeDee85]

@Mizmazzle appreciate that thank you! I think they have more personality per square inch than any other living creature German shepherd and Chihuahua would be some duo

[Mizmazzle]

Carl ate a big chunk of his stuffy a couple nights ago. Last night after dinner he started throwing up. I decided to take him to the ER last night. They did an XRay and found his spleen was really enlarged. Not even related to the stuffy eating incident it seam. They kept him over night and he’s still there. They are going to do an ultrasound this morning to see if he has an obstruction from eating the stuffy and figure out why his spleen is so enlarged. Broke my heart leaving him there last night and now I’m waiting in agony to hear back from the doctor…the house feels depressingly empty without him here.

Thanks everyone. It’s been an emotional rollercoaster of a day.

This is where things stand as of now. They are very concerned about his very enlarged spleen. They did an ultrasound today, did a tick borne disease test, and a needle aspiration of the spleen to check for lymphoma and full range of chest x rays. They seemed to feel strongly that the lymphoma was the most likely cause.

Well, the X-rays, tick disease testing and initial spleen cell analysis all came back clear. Apparently several specialists looked at the ultrasound and agree his spleen is way beyond even normal size deviations. They recommend a removal of the spleen and an endoscopy to remove the foreign objects in his stomach.

I spoke with my primary care vet and he strongly advised against the spleen removal. It’s so fucking hard hearing conflicting opinions about this shit. He is adamant that the organs are prone to size and shape variance and removal is too extreme.

I took my primary vets advise and opted to have the endoscopy done to remove the chunks of that mother fucking stuffed bear.

He goes in for the procedure this evening. Hoping to have him home and safe tomorrow afternoon.

God bless you dude. I love my dog but the most I’d spend on her besides the usual stuff is the cost of a shovel.
