Lost and Found

For the last month and a half Echo has been operating his personal lost and found area. The day before Halloween, we lost a squeaker from his new toy. It was found by the Oregon Veterinary Clinic on December 12. Unfortunately the storage location was his small intestine.



Echo returned home this afternoon after emergency surgery and a one night stay in the hospital. Except for some hair loss, dried blood, and about twenty stitches he looked much better than yesterday. He brought along a week's worth of medicine and a six pack of canned dog food (bland). Stitches can be removed in ten days.



Apparently they pumped Echo full of IV fluid. Immediately upon exiting the clinic, Echo pottied for a minute. This has been repeated every thirty minutes. He was also very hungry which is a good sign. It's tempting to dump his bag of food on the floor and let him eat until he gains ten pounds.

Needless to say we are very glad to have our little white dog back home. Buddy missed him too.
