Roo is at Tufts - Maltese Dogs Forum : Spoiled Maltese Forums

**jmm** · 11-09-2012, 08:08 PM

Roo Bear is in the ICU at Tufts. His Sodium and Chloride were so low on the blood I drew last night that we started him on IV fluids this morning. This afternoon I transferred him to Tufts for an ultrasound, urine culture, and monitoring his electrolytes. We will see how things look tomorrow.

Jackie, i've been wondering how Roo was doing, continuing prayers for Roo Bear. Please update when you can.

Jackie - I'm so sorry but at least you know Roo will be in good hands. Any idea of what's going on? Are you up in that area? I didn't realize it. Sending prayers.

We are about an hour and 15 min from Tufts. We think it is his kidneys failing.

Jackie, I am so sorry that you little Roo bear is continuing to have health problems. I'm glad you have good care for him...plus you have our well wishes. MiMi sends kisses.
