We've been told thesedogs are ten months old. His brother is at a healthy weight of just over eighty pounds. We got test results back today from his stool showing he has "whipworm". This could also be a factor in his temp., and lack of weight. Picked up meds for this too.

"Lucky" as we have been calling him (amongst other names, haven't decided on one yet) was much more energetic today. My wife gave him a good bath which resulted in a much better smelling and looking dog. The quills we pulled yesterday, come to find out, had "migrated" through his body and come out tip first, thought this may have something to do with the infection the doctor said he had. We noticed today that he had one of his front teeth knocked out at some point too.

I'll get some picture on in the next day or so.
