Scamps vet appt. went well, well as well as a sick appt. can go I suspect. They tested his poo, took his temp and felt over his entire body checking for injuries. They ended up finding out that has some bacteria and grass in his poo (diarhea), and a fever. They gave him two shots to get things going in the correct direction since he was so out of it and shivering on and off, one anti nausea (he threw up all over in the car on the way to the vet

), and one to take the fever down and to help him start to feel better. We also have a anti diarreah/nausea medication to administer as needed, and a antibiotic for several days (im pretty sure thats what the vet it was--i dont have the paperwork in front of me).
Fast forward two hours after leaving the vet---Scamp is already on the mend! He is running around almost like normal and came and started drinking and took one bite of food even! Heres hoping it continues! Thanks for all the well wishes!

Glad to hear Scamp is feeling a little better. Those shots work pretty fast!

Ah poor baby...hope he's on the mend and feeling better real quick. Thoughts and prayers from me for Scamp.

Get well soon Scamp!

Sounds like he's getting the best care. Hopefully he'll be completely back to himself in no time.
