We're critical. Vet in the morning.
His days of waiting new allergy test whilst on homeopathic protocol is not favoring him. So sad to see Moose in his eyes and face. Body is shutting down๐ฅบ
Unsure if he'll be coming home.
If he does come home he will be loaded with AB plus....
Most likely it will be decided after bloodwork.

Oh Memphis, he doesn't look well. I hope the vet is able to help him feel better and he's able to pull through! My prayers are with you ๐
Oh Tina!!!๐ณ๐ณ๐ณ๐ณ
He's suffering sepsis, organs still ok thank God. Currently on iv fluids, AB at the vet. First night. Ive been up n back twice (hour each way)/bringing him food, stick, love. He was so very brave as I helped them do wound care on his feet. They are so sore. He didn't bite anyone. I will be bringing him home tomorrow with iv pump and returning Monday for bloodwork update and most likely IV in there.
He needs time on his side as itll be two weeks before new allergy test comes back to highlight our way forward. Homeopath needs more info to work with๐๐๐
Glad to hear he's receiving treatment and hopefully he'll get better soon โค๏ธ Keep us posted on his progress
Ok he doesn't look as good as I'd hope. Very delirious coming out of sedation as he cried to come homeโน๏ธ
They took this opportunity to clean other wounds. He didn't give much response of 'happy to see me' I felt so bad leaving him all alone. Hes been loaded with multiple AB and more. He was whimpering when nearing the exit of the vet to say 'take me home'
We are home with IV pump slept a lot though. He got up before did his wee wee, got his stick but wouldn't eat. Well two itsy bitsy pieces hardly food.
Hes very content now knowing hes here and I'm not going.
Back on Monday for bloodwork and reevaluation๐
Ok we've turned the corner!
Eating, weeing, happy as, mobility great too๐๐๐๐
We can enjoy our Sunday๐ผโ๏ธ
Update tomorrow๐
That's great to hear!!
Omg Tina and all๐ณ
We've gone from turning the corner early in the day (Sunday) to back the other way dramatically๐
After a declining, sombre, pain absorbed Memphis .... I had little positivity for today's vet visit.
BUT he had blood work redone, WBC down from 35 to 30.. Should be 15 so a long way yet, culture report received to confirm correct AB use, which we are AND a good medicated bath/soak/gentle scrub, brush after.....
We have a beautified, happy, eating Memphis showing improvement! Whilst not a long term plan to eliminate reoccurrence, yet...we can bring him pain free to better health to manage this without medication๐
I still believe my homeopath can, once new allergy/hair report comes back, rectify/heal him from meds and tweak a more defined plan for us๐ she is away unfortunately.
I will also take in consideration, what if any more my vet can suggest. ๐
Due to go back next Friday. Maintaining medicated bath, soak every three days. AB oral for one week. He has 2 week long acting injectible AB in his system till next Friday. I know Steve AB๐
I'll upload pic of his scary, stinky infected sores prior to his clean happy self today.

Thankyou
๐๐๐. All
We are enjoying some relief and joy for Memphis. I know it's not resolved but happy times are to be treasured โค๏ธ๐พ
He finally is vocally happy, has thin legs, cleaned infection sores, appetite, drinking, pooping, and we've begun to venture out for very short strolls. Strolls for a bully is 'WTF was that, no swim, stick........ u-turn?' ๐
But I can see he can only do so much AND its hot presently. Little steps to build him up until I see he is not breathless.
Positive signs guys๐๐พ
Good to hear he's improving โค๏ธ
Hi Sarah,
How's Menphis doing?
Sorry I haven't updated here๐
Memphis is getting better if we are looking at WBC count on bloods however he will remain on AB injections for another 6 weeks possibly. No future remedy from vet except diet. I knew this before, I just went this route to keep him breathing whilst I still try to get my homeopath to help. I am still waiting in new allergy test to come back.
He is enjoying the days better even though his infections are very aggressive (top of back, tail, ankles) They will not go away unless we get some forward indication why. I know I'll have to do the medicated wash often to keep them at bay. We are having a streak of very hot weather which isn't in his favour either. Pics are misleading in that you cannot see these crusty red sores that quickly rise and produce.
Day at a time, enjoy every moment and pray this test indicates something we can change.๐
I glad to hear his spirits are up in spite of his skin/health. I know skin issues with BT's are challenging to say the least. I hope the allergy test comes back soon. Keeping you guys in prayer โค๏ธ
Thankyou Tina!
Finally after hot days he did his normal long walk, swim with more ease๐ฅฐ
Moose sends his love in the skies above๐ the geoengineering clouds stood no chance๐
Beautiful pic of Memphis and loving memories of Moose โค๏ธ Glad to hear he's doing better!
