Jintel Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 Juno doesn't seem to be putting on a lot of weight. He is drinking loads and loads of water and running for the newspaper to start it all over again. In 15 minutes he drank a whole bowl of water and had 3 wees! It's been going on for a least 2 weeks now. He seems happy and energetic despite being hungry all the time. My other half thinks he might have diabetes? Seems to add up so he is off to the vet Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 hmmmm, yes, could possibly be that - have you got him insured????? If not make sure you get him insured with a company that will pay out on lifelong illnesses!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 Yes definately get hime insured, but they need to be insured for 2 weeks with most companies before any diagnosis is made to be covered. Pet plan do a life long cover...best of luck xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siberian_wolf Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I would say it sounds like diebetes aswell, sorry. He is certainly showing most of the signs of it. Found this site which looks handy http://www.pet-diabetes.co.uk/diabetes-mellitus-dogs.asp Taking him to the vet is the best thing to do as they will urine samples, blood samples, etc to make sure. Keep us updated, hope it goes well for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jintel Posted March 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Well the vet has given me a few medicines to rid Juno of any parasites he might have amongst other things including more worming powder. They have also sent off a sample of poo to be checked out in a lab. Keeping my fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
