I am so happy about Loki!!

A couple months ago I posted about our chocolate lab, Loki, and he was sick and had been diagnosed with Lymphangeictasia. Our vet had us put him on prescription food and we noticed he was gaining the weight back (he lost 13 pounds in less than two weeks). A week ago, he went off of the Prednisone and immediately started to act like he felt better. He went to the vet yesterday and got a pretty clear bill of health! His liver functiion and blood is back to normal. He weighs 86 lbs., and is really too fat now, but we are so thrilled that he is more or less "out of the woods."
