Seems intermittent, doesn’t it.....

Oh that’s not good to hear 😞 We’ve had a Labrador experience with watermelon skin, and the fibrous stalk caused a problem. It remained undigested and caused a lot of discomfort until it finally passed. Was also an in and out of the vet situation.

Wow, that’s great!!

You an the vet are monitoring everything so closely. I’m sure the end of it all will be positive. Just a major stress getting to that point....
