Bernie
Update
6/10/06
When Bernie was rechecked on May 25, his results were erroneously
reported as negative; however we have just been advised by the lab, that
Bernie is still positive. He is also experiencing some other issues
which Dr. Jeff Ellis is monitoring closely.
Update
4/20/06
Bernie was tested 60 days after his last heartworm treatment in early
January and still tested positive. After waiting another 30 days, Dr.
Jeff Ellis determined treatment was necessary again; so on April 17 and
April 19, Bernie received yet his third round of medication. Bernie has
tolerated the treatment okay so far, and is being closely monitored by
his foster family.
Update
1/6/06
Bernie has completed his second round of heartworm treatment, and
as of this time, has tolerated it okay. He will be closely monitored for
the next 60 days to insure his activity level stays low.
Update
12/8/05
After gaining about 8 pounds, Bernie completed his first stage of
heartworm treatment on November 30, and has tolerated it well. He is being
monitored very closely by his foster mom to keep him quiet, which for
this 10 year old is a challenge! Bernie will have his second stage of
treatment around the end of December.
