Bump in the road.....

     
       Mickey wasn't feeling himself when I took him back to the clinic today. He was a little slower on his big 'ole feet and refused to eat his breakfast, SO not like a starving Great Dane! He had vomited several times while here with me, and I assume he had been vomiting at the clinic as well it just wasn't noticed since Mickey cleaned up his own mess.... Ewwww!
      Since we had an abnormal Saturday of not being overly busy Mickey got pictures taken (x-rays) of his abdomen. Nothing screamed obstruction but he did have gas patterns and something that looked similar to a rubber chicken. I mean he was starving so who knows what the poor guy ate. For now Mickey is being monitored by Lindsay and Monday we will complete a barium swallow. Depending on the results, he may need surgery.
