Thanks and yes we were very lucky.
Fortuitously we had just returned from two weeks in the South Uists and the pups had been playing non stop outside so they were very fit and also on the very best of foods.
The vet gave us 50/50 and he had some horrendous treatments to nullify his immune system, and is now at long long last almost off the steroids, another two weeks and he is hopefully going to get the all clear. This was the first week in September.
Turns out the disease can be in the dog all their lives and nothing happens. With is there was a taruma and it kicked it off. A dog down the park bit Blu, the owner denied it balck and blue... but oddly there were only two dogs there at the time and it now turns out it has since bitten another dog.... ho hum...
