Hi list,
I am posting this for Audrey Marsh, she has a puppy, 7mths old, that was placed 
from her last litter. The pup has come up with some serious health concerns at 
the moment, the pup is in the Canada West Emergency Clinic in Burnaby.
Her symptoms were,  lack of appetite, jaundice lack of energy.
In Sept she had a 5 way shot including Lepto, 3 weeks ago she was on Clavamox 
for a bladder infection. 
She was checked by the regular vet and sent immediately to the Emergency 
Clinic. She has had all blood tests, ultra sound, x-ray, no blockage, and liver 
biopsy (results not back yet)
She is now on Ampicillan , the vet said she is leaking blood serum through her 
veins. All blood work was normal except for highly elevated bilirubin. Kidneys 
were fine.
What they were looking as possible problems were
Lepto ( have since decided against it)
immune mediated hemolytic anemia
toxins or mushrooms
She is still lethargic but trys to greet owners when they come in to visit her, 
trys but can't get up.
Not getting worse but not better either. They are sending her home this 
afternoon for nursing  with a feeding tube in the neck.
Audrey would appreciate any info people can give, I will pass on everything 
sent to me.
Thanks so much for your help.
Margaret Winstone
