Sentry is sick. Last October he nearly died. I took him to the vet, got the usual round of medicine, but he got worse. I captured a urine sample and took him back. He spent a week in the hospital on IV and antibiotics. I brought him home with more antibiotics and prednisone.

Sentry wouldn't eat Wednesday night. It was obvious he didn't feel good. I couldn't do anything yesterday morning, so had to wait to see how he was doing when I got home.

He hasn’t been himself lately. His happiness is gone, no sparkle in his eyes. He doesn’t meet me up front when I turn in the driveway. His appetite is good, but something is wrong. Just not right.
I captured a urine sample this morning and took it to the vet for Sentry’s appointment. Sentry’s bloodwork showed slightly low white blood cells, but not bad. Urine had blood in it and once again, his bilirubin level is high. The vet mentioned the possibility of an autoimmune disorder.
Sentry has antibiotics and prednisone to take and the vet wants another urine sample next week.
I’m going to set up the big dog crate tomorrow and Sentry can come inside during the heat of the day. He and Carson don’t get along, Sentry is aggressive towards Carson. So I’ll have to figure that out.
