Black and White Sunday - Our Black Dog

R has been sleeping deeply almost continuously since he came home. I came over to him with my camera, and he continued to slumber, not even acknowledging my presence. Then, I opened the treat jar, and this was the sparkly eyed, albeit tired, look he gave me.
So far, I think he's simply tired from the battle his body waged. We see the vet again tomorrow.

Thank you for the amazing support.

    He should be tired after all he has been through, but his eyes look great:) Hope tomorrow's visit goes well.

    I'm sure it has been an exhausting several days for all of you. R's body took quite an insult so it isn't surprising that he is tired. Seizures make a body sore all over much like having the flu. Thank goodness he is making such a good recovery. Still sending positive thoughts to all of you.

    Rest up handsome prince.

    I don't know if it is the same with dogs, but I work with a number of individuals (and also know a few) who have seizure disorders and exhaustion after seems to be very common.

    His strong spirit just shines out from those eyes. He's a remarkable soul. I agree with Hailey and Zaphod and their Lady; when our daughter had seizures it took up to 24 hours for her to return to normal. After the severity of R's symptoms it is no wonder he needs lots of rest. Responding to the treat jar sounds like a very good sign though! Hugs to you all.

    Oh my goodness - I've been away, and just came back to read all of this! How dreadful for R and you :( My little one was sick a few weeks ago - though not nearly as bad as R - and we, too, thought maybe she got into something toxic. I did see some unusual mushrooms in my yard. R is a favorite of mine, he's such a perpetual puppy! Wishing y'all all the best with all of my heart...

    Good heavens! I hadn't seen your blog in a little while, and now checked in to find that I missed all the scary stuff and got here just in time to know that R is okay and resting at home. I hope he is back to his crackerdog self soon!
