RallyValley Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Toby has been dropped off at the vet for tests to be done and to get fluid in him because even though he has been drinking heaps he was dehydrated. Lets hope the cause is something curable. Poor boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RallyValley Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Thanks for the support everyone. Toby is now at Murdoch, ultrasounds show his liver is abornmally small, it's likely congenital and caused by shunt/s. We are getting him back stable then tomorrow seeing an internal medicine specialist to determine what can be done. The specialist told the vet that with lifestyle changes a dog like Toby can live for years, so we are cautiously optimistic that with the help of the specialists at Murdoch and a change in lifestyle Toby will pull through this.

Tassie Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Long distance positive vibes for you and Toby RV. Hope he's doing better this morning, and that the specialist can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Fingers and toes crossed for Toby RV. Tiggy/OSS - I would also be interested to know which pet insurance company that is as snakes is the main reason we are insured. Zazu has already killed two in her 6.5 years of life...Luckily not bitten either time. One of the Bunbury crew had their dog bitten by a Tiger Snake last week in the sand dunes of Dalyellup beach - 4 vials of antivenom later, he pulled through. Very lucky boy.

Tiggy Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Zali (my sisters dog) is fine. Their neighbour who's lived there for 25 years has never seen a snake, trust her to find one. I'll ask which pet insurance she has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RallyValley Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Toby is stable, he has had more testing done today and will likely be able to have his biopsy tomorrow. The cause is still unknown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
