Thanks everyone for the support. I talked to the doc this morning and he said he was eating without vomiting and should be fine in a couple of days. Hopefully I can pick him up in a day or two.Figured out that rope came from a buddies lab's duck dummy that he plays fetch with.

I can't believe he ate that whole rope. I hope he feels better soon.

He's back to his wild self! Thanks for asking. He made me chase him around the yard to get him back inside the house before work this morning. I'm really going to have to watch him. He will pick up and chew on damn near anything. He'll be getting his staples out this coming Monday minus the one he removed himself somehow. Hope he didn't eat that to! I've been keeping him inside except for bathroom breaks and we've been working on some basic stuff. He knows what sit, stay, free, and kennel means. He's being stubborn with the word HERE. He looks at me mischievously and usually runs the other way.

Great news. I don't know what u use free for. Jackson knows many commands as well but really uses them at this point how he sees fit. Working on it.

I make him sit at the back door when he wants out then I open the door and he knows to sit until I give the the word free.

We made a trip to the vet yesterday for some more shots and Rowdy weighed in at 15.5lbs. He's hit that lanky stage and looks like I don't feed him. He's eyes are starting to change as well.

Rowdy has gained 4 pounds in a week. He's 19.5lbs now. We went back by the vet today. His microchip has moved down to his shoulder and is swollen a bit. My vet said it's not to uncommon and sometimes chips will actually work themselves out of a dog. Has anyone else ever had a problem with a chip and a dog? He said he's removed a chip that actually moved into a dogs foot.
