It seems like every time we turn around, we are met with a new adventure! Whether it is a positive or negative adventure, it seems to always be something dramatic. (I know, IMAGINE).
This week, it is with our Weimaraner, Max. Yes, again. If you haven't figured out by now, he is much like his daddy in that he is prone to accidents or surgery or some sort of incident quite often. The past two weeks I have noticed him not wanting to eat. He seems to be depressed as well - not wanting to take walks, just wants to lay down and sleep, etc. He has not been his hyper self. And he has lost quite a bit of weight. Last night we called our vet. Long story short... he did Xrays on Max this morning and found that Max has swallowed a rock the size of an egg. Yes, people. The - size - of - an - egg!! So, Max is going into surgery in the morning to have them remove the rock or item from his stomach. Then they'll keep him for a clinical trial for new post surgery pain meds. He'll be there for 4 days after surgery to be monitored for this trial. Say a prayer for the little guy! I want him to be fully recovered and back to being Max again really soon!!
