Hey everyone,

Thanks so much for all your help first of all. The first thing i thought of was go to mycorgi and ask questions!
Anyway, I got drag boy to the vet around 8:30 this morning after a sleepless night of bloody paper towels and tears. I tried hard to keep it in, because i know he can sense my feelings. His nose never completely stopped bleeding, he bled all over his dog bed and floor. I was worried about blood loss, but since the blood was so fresh and bright red i knew it was okay. So much for the emergency vet giving him pills to clot the blood and make it stop.

But we got to my regular vet, and they got me right in. I dont know if this is because he was bleeding everywhere or it was just early. lol.

The nurse felt really bad for him.. but while i was trying to get his exam another nurse came in and told the doc that a puppy might be dying.. so she had to leave for a spell.

So im sitting there with wads of paper towel.. and hes cold so i had a blankie around him. Then he sneezed all over my jacket..

I dont care about any of the blood, it can be cleaned up. I know he needed to do piddle but he was still groggy from the anesthetic, but he piddled on me and the blanket on the way out of the vet. I told him " Baby if you need to go just let it fly. Mama will clean it up later."

My vet did more blood work, gave him a shot to stop bleeding, and gave him some vitamin K for his body.
She did say that somehow he got bit by that tick carrying that bacteria.

I dont know how.. he's hardly every outside.. but we do live in the country and he goes to the shop with me.

But i think hes on the road to recovery.. its going to take a while. Hes wrapped up and asleep right now, and im about to go join him.

It was scary because the nurse said his gums were pale.. and she said " His temp is low" and i said " Oh thats good." and she said No, its below normal.. not good."

i said Oh lovely..

but the vet said his overall color was okay and that he just needs relaxation.. and she gave me calm pills, an antibiotic and another kind that helps get rid of the virus.



Thanks again everyone.. and ill be on later with more info.

Goodnight :D
