Booty Update- Sunday Morning

I just spoke to Dr. Little at Desert Pines, Booty is doing better!

He became a little painful during the night and was given more Banamine (a pain killer). That helped him and he stayed quiet for the rest of the night. This morning, they tried to pass a tub again, and he refluxed a litle bit of liquid, but not like last night, which is a good sign. Dr. Little could feel a larger impaction now during the rectal exam, which may mean things are starting to move. He is going to try to tube him again and try to get some oil in him. Booty has been pain free for the past 6 hours and wants to eat (which he is not yet allowed to do).

A good update. Dr. Little said getting him on the IV fluids within the first 4 hours of the onset of colic helped him.

He will remain in the clinic.
