Now he developed an upper respiratory infection, his eyes and nose are just pouring out liquid, he is so stuffed up, not eating or drinking, so I took him to the vet again last night and they gave us an antibiotic for him to give him once a day, plus some pain meds in case he is in pain. He is just so listless, we are now syringe feeding him and also water, he is just so weak and tired it is breaking our hearts how he is having to go through this rough spell! We just want to get him well again, and if it is getting near his time to go home we want it peaceful for him, but the vets don't think it is time but they don't know, they think he is just so weak from all the vet visits and stress and not eating and all, but we are feeding him and hopefully he regains some strength and gets well again. I guess time will tell....we set up the big dog crate in the living room and put in blankets and food, water and a litter box for him so he isn't stuck in that little "cupboard" space he was hiding at in the kitchen, we need to be able to access him so this works well.
We just hope that he gets strength back and beats this upper respiratory infection and gets well again.....
Had to take Sebastian back to the vet AGAIN!
