To this day he LOVES purple Gatorade :)

Around four years ago I began dropping little hints to my hubbie about adding a bundle of joy to the family. We had been married for two years, and most of our friends had children or were expecting. But I was not interested in having a baby. I wanted a puppy!! Unfortunately, he did not share my enthusiasm. Lucky for me a beautiful American Eskimo puppy did all the work! We brought him home that night. We named him Bruno. Little did we know we had just bought a very sick puppy. Two days later Bruno began showing signs he was ill and getting worse quick. I began a frantic search online to find out what could be wrong. After some reading and online chatting I was convinced he had parvo and new he needed the vet asap. The vet returned my call that night recommending I "push" Gatorade through the night and call if he got worse. Bruno drank tiny sips from the bottle cap, but he was getting worse. The vet agreed to meet me in the office that night. When we arrived he immediately started parvo treatment and recommended Bruno stay for several days for the best possible results. I was devastated because to me that meant he would probably not make it. I visited him the next day and he was so excited to see his new Momma. After three days, Bruno was ready to come home and get the IV out!! Two years later he is a healthy and happy young boy! I have learned a lot in our years together and can't wait to share them with you.
