Only way to get them down is with vanilla ice cream. It was @2BullyMama suggestion and has worked a little too well! He's gained a pound since last week. I know it's the ice cream!

vanilla ice cream works wonders when i have to get Finn to take any meds too. But yeah, the wt. gain is not the best "side effect". :fie:

He's gained 1.5lbs while he was sick. I know it's because of the ice cream!! lol

But great news!!

We got back from the AMC (Animal Medical Center) a little while ago.
They took an x-ray and his lungs are clear. It's resolved. No more Aspiration/Pneumonia.

I am so freakin' happy. These last three weeks have been a nightmare. Can finally relax for a little bit.

Here's a pic I just took of my sleepy boy, he's exhausted. Cause you know, getting a few x-rays taken is hard work..lol

That is great news. Keep on truckin' Wellie. I'm sorry about the weight gain but I can relate...I look at a dessert and I gain 10 lbs. LOL.

Wellie, I do know a great weight loss program that I lost 59 lbs in 3 weeks. :yes:

Thanks everyone. This place really helped keep me sane!!
[MENTION=8944]dieMuttivonBifi[/MENTION] He's staying on the antibiotics for one more week. But that's a normal precaution.

He's also going to stay on the Prilosec until his surgery consult in two weeks. Then it's up to them. The Prilosec isn't a big deal, just an ant-acid in a sense. They're using it as a preventative so he doesn't gag or vomit. Don't want another episode of aspiration.. :(
She did say something interesting. Said it could of just been a fluke that caused it and it may never happen again. But just to be safe, the brachycephalic surgery (for his palate) is a good idea.

The surgery consult is in two weeks and that's when we'll schedule his palate, nares and neuter procedures.

Then, at the end of December we're all going on a vacation! I can't wait..lol..
