He is the sweetest, friendliest dog in the world. He loves everybody. He is somewhere between 13 1/2 and 14 1/2 years old.

When I first found him, I didn't even realize how beautiful he was. He was kind of dishevelled and he was very skinny. He was full grown but he only weighed about 45 pounds. He was somewhere between 1 and 2 years old. He weighs 60 pounds now.

He looks very happy, lucky for him you went to the track that day.

He seems like he is doing fine now. I think the vet misdiagnosed him. I think it was just an acute kidney problem, rather than a chronic one. I'm going to take him back to the vet in a couple of days and they will re-do the tests.

His appetite is great. I'm pretty sure he is fine now, but I won't know for sure until later in the week.

I'm not going to get a dog again until I get married. It's too big of a responsibility having a dog when you live alone.

LOL re: Cannon Shell's remark.

Rupert-

You should consider getting a cat. I grew up with dogs and believed the stereotypes re: cats. True, they don't like strangers much but if they know you or you are their master, they are a lot more similar to dogs than you think. And they are much easier to take care of. Obviously you liked having a pet. You should consider getting a cat.

I'm going to take him to VCA this time. I have more faith in their lab than my current vet. VCA has all the best equipment and technology.
