I need some crossed fingers and good thoughts here...
Vet checked him thoroughly and sent fluids for testing. He seemed healthy physically so we've been in a "wait and see". No more seizures so we were relieved.
Yesterday - in a matter of minutes, Rocky lost his sight. I was walking into the house with the three dogs when I noticed he was acting strange.
My son has decided against further testing - with the vet's agreement. If it's a brain tumor - which is what the vet thinks - tests won't solve anything and we don't want to stress Rocky for no reason.
My son takes him out on a leash now - the trust is there so Rocky stays right with his owner. He's in my son's office on the lower level right now - that's where he spends much of his day as a rule so we're keeping his schedule the same. No more major seizures but we think he's had a series of smaller seizures as sometimes he seemed a bit 'dazed'.
About two weeks ago I noticed my dog (who adores Rocky) was spending most of her time with him - stying very close to him - was nervous around him at times and licking his face and mouth which was unusual. Now I wonder if she sensed or smelled something wrong before any symptoms began to show.
We're hoping for the best but I don't feel very upbeat about it. If it were "only" the blindness we could handle that - but Rocky clearly feels bad. He is sleeping a lot but when awake you can tell he's uncomfortable if not in pain. We won't allow that to go on for long but it's a hard decision because he's so young.
Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.
