Update

He's coming home today!!! Yahoo Yahoo prayers were answered. Thank you all peeps!
We don't know what he had but he's pretty much all back to normal now. He did have a barium series and that was negative do vet thinks he ate something nasty out of the garbage. I went out and bought new trash cans with locking lids cause he'll be back in there again.....
btw ... he has a shaved leg too from the IV catheter.
He was due to show in about 4 weeks not sure how that will look in the ring we'll see then.

It sounds like your boy had acute pancreatitis caused by ingesting something rotten (road kill, garbage), or a large amount of fat (like getting into suet for the birds). It causes vomiting and bloody diarrhea and has a fairly quick onset.

So glad you got him to the veterinarian on time and he pulled through!

Glad and relieved to hear that he is doing better.

I think buying new garbage cans with locking lids is a good start!

I've been checking back, also.

I'm so glad he's doing better.
