Quick Check Up

Although our cancer doc recommended an xray and sonogram every other month (well, an xray one month, the sonogram the next, rinse and repeat), our general vet feels that we are now safely to a point where every 3 months is now sound (and fiscally responsible, too). So, it was time for Henry's check up to see how Henry's innards were doing. We know he still has the IBD and while we've been managing that pretty well, we've noticed his poops have been just a little off. So, we are going to adjust his meds just slightly until it kind of works itself out. (Maybe burger night wasn't the best idea. Boo!) He's been pretty much on his p's and q's for a good long time so one night probably wasn't the cause.

We are THRILLED to announce that Henry is still in very good overall health and the doc says that he's still going strong and each time we go to the vet the last few trips our doc just keeps saying how Henry is on the upswing and is doing so great! His organs all look great but Dr. Long shared that Henry is missing a kidney! Hey! How did THAT happen? Ha! But seriously, He is doing great and that is terrific to hear! We also heard from Ann at CFPR about how positive they were when CFPR called for our reference check to see if we were fit pug people. We are very grateful to have such an awesome vet/team of medical support for Henry. #HenryIsOneLuckyPug!
