Life with dogs

King
King had a little bit of a setback last night. He seemed fine during the day, and actually ate more than he had in weeks, including Mickey's leftovers from the previous day. But at some point during the night, he became very uncomfortable--he drank water several times, ate Mickey's leftovers from the day's dinner, and paced paced paced. Needed to go outside several times--130am, 3am, and iirc about 430am. Since he's been almost exclusively leash-only since he got sick--to keep him from eating dirt/mulch--that meant that I needed to go out with him. When he slept, it was only for a half-hour or so at a time, and usually beside my bed.

I phoned the vet first thing. King is back on Carafate, which coats his stomach. Vet and I will discuss matters during his follow-up visit on Saturday.

I'm so sorry, Kris. For you and for King both.

It happened again last night, but...I think something else may be going on. Not a bad thing--except for my sleep--but irritating.

I will talk it over with the vet tomorrow.
