Give your pups a hug

Remy has spent all day at the vet for an ailment we currently no little about. Signs point to a bowel obstruction (which would be his second in his lifetime) but it could be anything.

And there's a chance a tumor removed from his mouth was, indeed, cancerous.

I'm a bit numb at the moment. Hopefully this is just a minor bump and he has many more years left.

6.5-years is prime for a hunting dog.

Good luck buddy. Here is hoping it turns out well

Zogman · Nov 28, 2016

All the best for you and your dog. We get so close to our dogs and rightfully so. They give us so much. Hope it all turns out for the best.

Hope things turn out OK.

He does have an obstruction. It's near the colon, though, which means it's dang near out. Doc is going to give him IV fluids overnight in hopes his guts rehydrate and he can pass it on his own. Otherwise it's $1,000 minimum exploratory surgery and no more hunting for this season.

I realize praying for a dog is no where near as important as ending world hunger or wanting peace in the middle east. But if you can spare a couple words this evening, by all means...we'll take 'em.

Prayers sent, and hopefully answered. Hope he gets better, and takes a shit so big it will put a on your face!

Vollmer · Nov 28, 2016

Eesh, that sucks to hear. I hope you hear good news soon.

LBrandt · Nov 28, 2016

Remys in my prayers to night. I sometimes prefer dogs to people.

KDM · Nov 28, 2016

Damn!! Hope all turns out well and it's back to the field for both of you!! Prayers sent!

"Sometimes." Good one.

Keep us posted amigo. In for a long night.

I hug my dog so much, I think it annoys him. Good luck and hope things get back to normal soon.

FishSticks · Nov 28, 2016

That is scary man, hope all turns out well

guywhofishes · Nov 28, 2016

Ah crud. Very sorry to hear this. Your clan is in our prayers. Chin up and all that.

svnmag · Nov 29, 2016

Prayers sent. Hoping for a good update today.

Duckslayer100 · Nov 29, 2016

Well still no poop. Took him on a half hour walk and all he had was a squirt of diarrhea. So he's going under the knife. Again. Last time he recovered at warp speed. Of course he was 1.5 years old. Hopefully his body still has the goods to kick things into high gear. I'd like to get him on one more pheasant hunt before we're buttoned up. The rate he's going, it could be his last!

Dang it. : (

I hope this is a help Duck when things settle down:
