desertdog is not doing too well

desertdog has had a nasty sore on his neck for a couple of months now which antibiotics just aren't shifting. His kidneys aren't doing too well and he is sad and flat. Last couple of days he has had horrible diarrhea. He has gone from a silly, bouncy, slightly dim boy to a flat, sad, tired boy. More blood tests on Tuesday and then I am going to ask for a referral for more tests and scans etc. I hate it when they are ill, he is lying on my feet while I type this - fingers crossed it is all fixable - losing him will break my heart.

Sorry to hear this, it's so hard when they are ill. Hope you get more from a referral! It's a long time for nothing to have worked :/

Has the vet ruled out - looked into alabama rot?

not heard of that so googled it - his wound is on the back of his neck but he does roll a lot when out and about (loves a good roll in poo!). He has had nore blood taken today - waiting for results. Will mention this to the vet when I see her. At the moment everything is worth investigating.
