Poor Knox ..


My little Knoxie is very sick. Saturday night, he got into some raisins. For those unaware, they are toxic to dogs. There are a lot of unknowns related to the way the toxin works.

Scott and I are worried sick. His kidney and liver function tests were normal today. They will be redrawn on Wednesday so that they can be trended. Along with raisins causing acute renal failure, the chocolate he ALSO got into (yes, I just said also) can cause issues with his liver. Mostly, we are not concerned with the chocolate and mostly focused on the raisin toxicity.

Say a little prayer, please. My little lethargic pup appreciates it.

Grandpa tossed two 13's out there for me tonight. And as if I didn't take those seriously enough for him, there was a penny on the ground. Regardless of what side is up, those stray pennies bring my thoughts straight to him.

I'm trying to stay my usual, positive self. Praying, praying.

I'm so sorry to read about Knox. I pray that he feels better soon and that you and Scott stay strong. It's not easy seeing your baby get sick.

Scott and I have both been physically sick over this. He said he's not sure we can handle human babies! It's ROUGH! Thanks, Amanda .. we're ready for some reassurance with our labs at 2 today!
