    That was my thinking too, so I have made some changes in his food. He was on Purina One Puppy Formula for all his life (since we had him). But now he is on Blue Buffalo, the fish and sweet potato formula. He seems to like it, but it's still new to him. I also feed him cooked meat twice a...

    Hiya Doberluv, yes, things have been really bad, but I was trying to take everything in stride, and didn't realize how bad things had gotten. But now Jack is doing GREAT!!! He is back to normal, eatting like a horse, showing enthusiasm for life. It's like he has "awakened" to himself! He...

    UPDATE: Very Very good news. Jack went to the vet today. No blockage, no tumor. Just a ton of "junk" in his intestines. All that crap he's been eating out in the backyard. Surprisingly, it appears, no mange. Which pisses me off that he took those heavy duty meds for so long.:mad: But...

    Good advice, corgi, thank you.:) I have been trying to think everyday about building Jack's immune system, I think that's key.

    Good advice Lizzy, thanks so much. I have another good report. Because I gave them chicken earlier, I've just now fed them their regular supper. And Jack ate ALL of his supper, which was a cup of kibble with a little roast beef. And this is a big thing: He cried and begged while I was...

    Aha! I think we have discovered the culprit, and your question was key, Lizzy. Besides the Ivermectin, Jack has been on Hydroxyzine, 100 mg per day, for almost 2 months now. Saturday, 3 days ago, I told my hubby I wanted Jack OFF the Hydroxyzine, and that I didn't want him taking anything...

    Well I'll be. I heated some leftover chicken in the microwave, sat down to eat it, and here comes Jack! :) He was actually begging and eye-balling that chicken, so I gave him some. And then gave him some more, and more. He ended up eating about 2 pieces of chicken. (and chicken was the one...

    Hi Zoom, yes, I am concerned he might have a blockage. I will ask the vet to do xrays, and probably blood work, or whatever they think might be needed. My worst fear is he might need surgery, or have a tumor. I've been begging my hubby for 2 weeks about this, and he keeps saying "Jack is just...

    Hi LizzyBeth, :waves: It's the demodec kind. We were treating him with Ivermectin, but then he lost his appetite. The vet said to take him off the Ivermectin, and see if his appetite improves. Well, it's been 2 weeks, and his appetite is still very low. I'm taking him back to the vet...

    Much thanks here to everyone taking an interest in my Jackster.:) I still have him, I couldn't bear to part with him, and now he is about 85 lbs.!! We are having some problems, mainly he has mange.:( But there are other things, I really need to make a new thread for his current situation...

    one year ago today.....

    Chance was a beauty, and was lucky to have you. A few years ago, my dog died from tumors in her sinuses, and had similar symptoms as Chance did. I have an old thread about it here. It was terrible, so I know what you are talking about. So sorry..:(

    Oh he is an absolute joy.:) That's what makes it so hard to even think about letting him go. 4 sounds like enough, really.:) The guy that mows my yard, he rescues dogs, and he has 14 dogs!!:yikes: Well, imo, at that point, you can't really care for them too well. He is the person who gave...
