New Old Dog's ultrasound was good. He does not have cancer, which was the biggest concern given his age and symptoms. All signs appear to point to chronic pancreatitis. Low-fat special dog food, patience, and a little chicken and rice for the old man.
He looks a little funny now -- they shaved various bits of his fur in order to do the ultrasound, and he is all patchy and uneven. A very poor Manscaping job, indeed. He does not appear to be concerned, though. He's eaten a little bit here and there, and we hope that he will continue to improve with careful diet. We'll have some more time together yet.
Good boy.
