Eskie Rescuers United

Coco is the sweetest little eskimo boy. Coco was picked up as a stray and was not claimed by his owners. Coco was so matted with burrs and dirty, his hair was shaved from his neck down. Coco tested positive for Lyme and Ehrlichia (currently on doxycycline), probably because he spent most of his time living outdoors. He was so frightened when he first arrived in my home. It seems as though he was scolded or worse. He has been at the R'eskie Ranch for a few weeks now, and he is a happy boy. He loves all the other pups here, loves daily walks, and loves his yard and exploring. He likes everyone he meets.
X-rays showed density in lungs and an enlarged heart at his first vet appt, along with elevated liver enzymes. Coco will be on daily heart meds for the rest of his life. 
At the follow-up visit, all the liver enzyme values decreased and the density looked the same. The DVM thinks he could have cancer or it could be scar tissue. We will do follow-up x-rays in another month to see whether there is a change in the density.
In the meantime, we are happy to have this lovely boy here at the ranch.
