Okay, it's been a while since I've done any good updates here, but I've had little time to do anything for myself lately. First of all, I have to finish a paper for college to hand in next Tuesday. I should manage to finish it without too much of a problem.
But there's a second timesink which's even taking away some of the time I need to spend on said paper.
Last week my dog had been diagnosed with autoimmunity, which caused his body to reject the fibrous tunic on his eye. We first thought it was an infection because his eye looked all blue, but no, it's autoimmunity. We were just in time to let him have surgery, where the doctor had to sew his third eyelid over the eyeball so the fibrous tunic could receive blood vessels to restore the wound. However, there were some signs his second eye had the same problem. Today it had been decided his other eye had to receive the same treatment, meaning we practically have a temporarily blind dog.
It really is very troubling since he's feeling so depressed because of his protective collar, he refuses to drink from his bowl. Feeding is doable, but it has to be done by hand.
These are troubling times indeed...
UPDATE:
Ollie just returned from the vet, and it looks like everything'll be not as bad as we first thought. The vet has opened the eye that was closed first since it had started healing again, and will now instead be treated with eyedrops. His other eye has been closed now to receive the same treatment as the first one, so he'll still be walking around with his collar for a while.
We still haven't figured out how we'll make sure he'll drink enough water. For some reason he doesn't want to go near his old waterbowl and even refuses to drink from his feeding bowl. Actually, it is as if he refuses to eat from his bowl as well.. Someone suggested wetting his dry food with water, but that'll be incredibly messy since we have to handfeed him. The only other, yet tedious option that seemed to work after trying it out is by letting him drink from a wet sponge...
Maybe I should feed him watermelon instead. XD--Fly out
