About Percival:
1/9/26 Pupdate:
About 1½ years old | 17½ lbs
Update:
Percival has been here since Monday, and what a little trooper he has been. We started out with him in a medium crate in the bathroom, tucked right by the sink. At first, he was continually leaking poop, so we quickly developed a system. Every two hours, I’d go in and carefully pick him up (being mindful of his multiple incision sites), gently rinse his little tail/butt area, pat him dry, clean up any mess he had laid in, pull out all the towels and blankets, replace everything with fresh ones, and then back in he went. Through all of this, I was rewarded with kisses—never a single complaint from this sweet boy.
The good news is that he has started having multiple small, formed poops. Because of that progress, we’ve moved him to the dog library in a larger crate, with blankets on one side and a pee pad on the other. This sweet little guy makes every effort to get himself onto the pads. He’s still straining a bit, which I keep a close eye on, and sometimes he’ll step in it and get a little messy—but to me, this is huge progress.
Even better, if I time it right, he’ll pee outside! He has a small area just outside his crate lined with pee pads. When he steps out, we clean his feet, pat his little behind dry, and then he’s able to walk outside on his own. Still hits the sink for cleaning but not as often.
I just want everyone to know how incredibly sweet this little guy is. He loves to give kisses and never complains or gives me a hard time. He has the cutest face, complete with a little tongue that I absolutely adore. Percival is so deserving of all the medical care you have helped make possible, and I’m beyond grateful for the support he’s receiving.
1/2/26 Pupdate:
I will close the night with my most recent update on Percy. Dr. Lecher said he is the sweetest boy and no matter what he has been through he wags his little tail at them when they come to work on him. He still hasn’t eaten any food but he is smelling it so next step is some appetite stimulants. No sign of sepsis yet but we know that doesnt mean anything, he is in now ay out of the woods.
They have him resting comfortably with his stuffie, still hoping and praying he fights through this with no sepsis.
________________________________________________
Emmas night ended at about 10:00 pm on New Years Eve. Driving to the shelter to get Dough boy and this boy Percival with the rectal prolapse in the traffic. She drove him to the ER to get him the emergency help he needed. She sent me these photos, this dog was physically and mentally exhausted, she said he constantly strains and strains until his back legs just give out.
It was then handed over to me to communicate and make decisions with ER staff. I spoke to Dr. Perotti at about 2 in the morning, her plan was to get his pain under control and see how much she could reduce it. Dr. Lecher was coming in at 8:00 so they would hand it over to her. Dr. Lecher has done most if not all of our prolapse surgeries, and we have sent her some doozy’s.
She called me just late this morning and said she took him to surgery this afternoon, his blood work looks good, he does have dead tissue but she thinks she can work with it. She said it’s been out far longer than 2 days. I told her people lie like drunks pulled over that say they have had 2 beers.
She did do a colopexy while in there to secure it hopefully for good. So many people ask why this happens and most of the time it’s parasites that cause diarrhea and the straining is just too much for their rectum. This case is no different Percival is filled with hooks worms and whip worms. Dr. Lecher really wanted to neuter him at the same time, but she said his scrotum is rotten with urine scald and it’s just not safe. He does have a dermoid on his eye that we will deal with later.
Unfortunately the surgery ended up being far more complicated than they hoped, they could not get the colon to reduce as much as they had hoped, and while putting it back together he did get a nick in his colon. This of course is very dangerous for sepsis. The flushed out everything, over, and over, again and put an omentum patch on the nick, and put it back together but we just don’t know if he will pull through and go septic. This is a very dangerous thing and no way to know what will happen, all we can do is hope and pray he doesn’t and can come through all of it.
They said despite his suffering and pain he is a very sweet little man.
We will try so hard to turn your life around little guy, ut you need to fight right now.
