:)Thread started by Eileen August 30th 2008
Mickey, a Yorkshire terrier, came to us via Julie after his owner died. He has Cushings Disease and his monthly med bill is £50 plus quarterly blood tests at £80.
He is a fab little man who is in a long term foster home with another Yorki and a Border Collie where he is much loved.

:)Update on little Mickey posted by Eileen 5th November 2008
We are a little worried about Mickey. His latest blood results showed a marked channge in his condition. The vet phoned the lab and they confirmed the results were correct. Mickey has now been taken off meds for a week and will start back on a lower dose and will be tested again in a few weeks.
He is a very happy boy who is besotted with his foster dad, Dave. He follows him everywhere and likes to go out for rides in the car with him.

Little Mickey is a very poorly boy. He has been in the vets for two days and had surgery to remove an obstruction from his tummmy. It was found to be a small bit of plastic ball that the little tyke must has eaten.
He has been allowed to go home today and will have to go back on Monday.

Poor little Mikey spent another night in the vets. He went back to have the stitches out from his op and they are a little concerned because he doesn't want to eat.
Fingers crossed for this fab little man.

Our little man is still quite poorly and the vet is concerned. Because he has Cushings it is difficult to tell what is causing his problems and loss of appetite.

Poor Mickey has been under the weather and hasn't eaten for a few days, so Eileen took him to see the vet yesterday. He had some bloods taken and the results were clear. His liver and kidney functions are not brilliant but do not require any medication, just monitor as and when. He now has some pepsin for his tummy to see if his appetite will return. He came to P@H yesterday just for an hour, while waiting for the results of his tests. Here is this gorgeous little man!  |
