Question
Hi,My golden is a 5 year old male.He was in perfect health until yestrday morning he did not want to eat which was very odd for him.As the day went on he tried to eat and started vommiting right after.He tried to lay down but kept crying when he did lay down and kept jumping up rightaway.I took him to the hospital and they took blood work which revealed his liver enzymes and white blood cells were high.They also took xrays of his liver but nothing showed up.Now they are keeping him overnight to monitor him and give him an ultrasound test tommorow.I really need your expert advice on this please help.Thank you for your time.

Answer
Hi alison;
He is in the best place possible.
Wait for all the tests to be finished.
I know it is hard to sit calmly by and wait, but he is where he can get care.
Maybe the Ultrasound will show uo something.
He may have swallowed something that will not let food pass.
Hopefully is is a round ball that is too big, or something like that, and it can be fixed easily, and there is nothing serious wrong with him.
It sounds llike your Vet is being very thorough.
Just pray for him Hon, and I will pray for him tonight too.
Olease let me know how this comes out.
