Dino on Thursday

Today we saw a very slight improvement in Dino's condition.  He ate a little bit and was awake for short periods.  We are on a regime of oral antibiotics and monitoring his vital statistics. 
The vigil continues, we are not out of the woods.
There is still a lot of swelling over Dino's head and especially around his eyes, but it is looking much better.

  1. Hi Megan,

    I think Dino looks much better around his muzzle, I am so encouraged. His sweet little nose looks almost normal.

    You and Henning are such wonderful dog parents.

    Hugs ♥ Baby kisses on Dino's sweet little nose.

    1. Yes, definite visible improvement. Dino is breathing easier today, ate a little this morning, and since we can't walk him we are massaging his limbs. We are also rubbing the swollen parts. I was scared that it might hurt Dino but the vet says it's actually very itchy!

  2. I would like to gently pat him he looks so sad. He isn't as swollen as before. I hope you have a good day.

    1. Thanks Kay. I'm sure Dino would lap up the attention. This week already he has received several boxes of dog treats from various well wishers, and yesterday a friend's two little children delivered get-well cards for Dino. I'm becoming jealous!
