Day 7: Coonhound Paralysis / Facial Nerve Paralysis

    Sully is showing so much improvement today. He has some blinking function in both eyes, his ears can twitch somewhat, and he barked. His bark is low and raspy, but I was still very excited to hear it. With no increased function of his lips, I will still be giving him fluids. The increase in energy now that he can eat some soft foods is amazing. I can make his normal kibbles soft with the corn syrup mixture I cited in an earlier post, or with a dog food "gravy". I am going to take him for a walk around the park. He deserves it.
