Dog gose back to the vet tomorrow for a follow up. He has been eating by himself, drinking water, and seems to have more energy, but I realize he is not out of the woods, but am encouraged to see some of these signs nonetheless. So he goes back tomorrow for some blood tests, and will take it from there. I'm supposed to keep him on some low protien diet, but he insists on going outside and eating the cat food, so will have to change that. Take care and Happy New Year to everyone.
