Baxter hopefully on the mend

My canine chum has been out of sorts for a few days now. Lethargic and not wanting to do very much. Had to take him to the vet today after he was reluctant to go out for his midday walk. Lovely Lorna gave Baxter a thorough check. Nothing wrong with his temperature but weirdly he has put on 3/4 of a kilo over last six months even though he is well exercised and his weight has been stable ever since he was fully grown 8 years ago. Thinks he may have a pancreatic problem affecting his processing of fat as he has actually been eating a lot less food for a while now. Got two injections - an anti inflammatory and a penicillin one. May have to go for blood test if still lethargic in a couple of days.
