Tues and still no Seth

Went to the vet this afternoon to pick up Seth. Had a talk with the vet and he didn't feel Seth was ready to go home. He said while he is perky enough, he's still not eating well. We discussed the possibilites and determined it really isn't acting like pancreatitis. He says it seems like a possible intussusception. I said I'd rather leave him there and determine exactly what the problem is rather than bring him home and see how it goes. It may cost me more, but this is Seth we are talking about. So, he's going to do an ultrasound or something and if it shows anything he will do an exploratory surgery. With Seth it is possible he has a foreign body. He does chew stuff up and has injested stuff before. He once threw up half a tennis ball. Guess he'd rather swallow stuff than let another dog get it. Anyway, I am Sethless for one more day at least.

Mike is trying to keep my spirits up by being silly. For some reason he has it in his head there is something in the stacked crates in my groom shop. He spent a long time just staring into the corner.




He started out innocent enough.







Then got a bit more determined











Then he got serious about finding whatever it was he thought was there.









Thing is there was nothing there!


Now everytime he goes into the kennel room he stares into the corner. I might ask the vet if they have a mental ward at that hospital.
