His lack of appetite had us puppy parents rushing him to the vet after 3 days of lethargy. Of course, after dropping $350 in medical expenses (as DH had to point out this cost to me), Dill cured himself. The source of his discomfort unraveled like a black river in our living room. Fun times having to clean up the mess, but we were rewarded by Dill’s happy old self again.
