If nothing else, the prednisone should increase your appetite. We are praying that it does. It sounds like you have great doctors, and we already know you have great pawrents, Jim & Rene, so you're in the best hands possible. It makes me sad to see my Mom so upset over this, though. She just doesn't seem to get that part of dog thinking, yet. Love, Blazer & Kimber Dearest Jerry,

I wanted to pass on that when we found out, my mama went straight to the local meat shop and talked to the owner about organ meats - he talked to the processors and ranchers and now they are saving the hearts, livers, even tongue (yummmy!) for me - mama pays less than $1/lb., takes it home, grinds it up raw and mixes it with my food - I gobble it up so fast, I don't remember to pick out my pills! I hope this helps - I'm thinking of you my friend and I'm sure we'll meet someday.

I'm having problems getting Wallace (greyhound) to eat. He was recently diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour. Someone on Greytalk recommended Nutritional Yeast as being a product which can really stimulate the appetite. They sent me a big tub of it which arrived today (because it seems harder to get here in the UK than in the USA). I've just given Wallace some for the first time and he did eat what I gave him (I mixed the three tablespoons with a can of chicken soup) so maybe this would be worth a try for you?
