After talking with the vet and the other trainers at SSD I've come to understand IBD much more. Winston will have reoccuring pain and discomfort but on the contrary he will have really good times. This most likely has been going on since his urinary track issues back in '02 and simply gone into remission until now. Winston's entire intestines are affected by the IBD. Pet Education has supplied me with the wonderful infromation about IBD that I encourage anyone that is interested to read, again the information is here.
The past few months have been incredibly difficult and trying for Winston and I. I think constantly about whether or not he should continue working and everyone continues to say "You'll know when it is time." and most of the days he looks at me like he just wants to sleep and play. I'm waiting for Cindy and Nancy to call back to have one last discussion about what to do before I decide.
All advice, thoughts, comments would be greatly appreciated right now.
