Tiger update
So if any of you keep up with my lame blogs here's an update on my doggie Tiger. He was doing fn amazing and gained a solid 5-6 lbs and had that twinkle in his eye again. Then the holidays came and I had to give up our (me and the pets) room for my aunt and uncle and Tiger had to sleep in the garage. I didn't like it but I had no real control over the situation. I ended up sneaking him into my sisters room the last two nights of their stay and just letting her bitch at me later. He started getting kinda sad looking and i noticed he looked thinner than normal. That's when I started observing his food consumption and voiding much closer. He almost never eats now and when he does it's very little. I talked to the vet over the phone and they said to put some broth on his food so it smells more appealing and to give him peanut butter but to be careful in spoiling him or he wouldn't want to go back to dog food. At this point I don't care if I have to cook him 5 star courses so he'll eat so I just kept trying different things. I discovered he really likes carrots, so he's been eating those whenever I can get him to eat. :( he didn't even want pb the other day. He's at the vet today getting some test done so hopefully we can get him back to healthy. I've grown to love him soooooo much more this past year. I don't care if I have to clean up accidents and potty pad over flow for the rest of my days If we can get him back to normal. If anything happens to him I won't be able to forgive myself for not taking a bigger stance on letting him stay inside of the bedroom with us. I think he felt we didn't care anymore so he stopped fighting. :,( Thanks for reading my uber depressing sob story and if you could just send some healing vibes his way I would very greatly appreciate it.

Thanks Phillip, I've been wanting to update but I was waiting for test results and stuff. It seems Tiger may just be depressed because of the lack of attention during the holidays. All of his blood work, fecal test and x rays show everything is normal. No cancer, no worms, no viruses no nothing. He took a liking to the food they gave him at the vet so I've been buying it from them and he's been wolfing it down. I guess he's less scared to eat it since it's not dry hard food even if he does throw up it won't hurt nearly as much. Thanks again for the kind words Phillip! I'll post a pic of a healthy Tiger once he gains enough weight I'm sure PETA would kill me based on the pic. He looks like skin and bones right now :( but he's eating again!

I'm so sorry, Pint! I have two cats and they're my children, so I know just how you feel. In fact, this post actually made me kinda weepy, which doesn't happen very often. My best thoughts and healing, happy, healthy vibes are with you and Tiger. With love like that, I hold firm in my heart that your pooch will bounce back, good as new! I'll be keeping you and Tiger in my thoughts!
