Is that your son holding the puppy? He should be put on a diet if he's not already on one. I'm not saying this to be mean. I know a lot of people with kids that look just like that and they have diabetes. A very close cousin of mine looked like that as a kid, he's 22 now and his doctor just recently found that he's diabetic. Another cousin of mine has a five month old girl thats overweight and she is already on a diet. At five months old, this kid is on a diet, and its plainly visible that she needs it.
Obesity is such a huge problem now and the problem starts when they are very young, you should try to help that kid out. If that is your child, I'm sure you've already heard this from his pediatrician but you should really keep an eye on that for his own well being.

I have no intentions of going down that road, I was just throwing in my useless 2 cents. I feel sorry for it (the puppy).

BoneMan, I'm pretty sure I already discussed the kid in another post in this thread, but no, that's not my kid. I don't have kids. He lives in Tennessee, and is the son of a friend of one of our volunteers.
On another note though, I think that a 5 month old on a "diet" is the most obscene thing I've ever heard. Babies are barely eating any solid foods at that age - what is her mother cutting down on breast feeding??

I have to agree with you on this, Liz. However, it is extremely unlikely that an exclusively breast fed baby (as a 5 month old should be) would become overweight. She is probably formula-fed, and I would hazard a guess that she was started on foods wayyyyy too early. 
On topic: I think that you're terrific for adopting Gabe!

Yeah, unless they're feeding her lots of sugary baby food, I can't see a 5 month old baby being considered over weight. And I don't know of any respectable physicians that would recommend that parents put a 5 month old on a diet!
On Topic - Thank you I just went to the pet store and bought some toys and clothes for him for when he arrives. It sucks that he won't be here until next week, but I can wait!

Gabe arrived today. He's freakin precious, and such a nice puppy. He just wants to be held and cuddled. This is not a good news post though - he had a seizure tonight....obviously, I knew this was going to happen, but I guess I wasn't mentally prepared for it to happen the day he got here. It's such a helpless feeling, not being able to do anything. If he continues to seize tonight/tomorrow we're bringing him in to be put to sleep tomorrow, or, if he worsens at all tonight, we'll do it tonight. It sucks, but it's the right thing to do - I don't want him to suffer at all. Right now he's resting, and he could be better tomorrow morning...I'll be watching him closely and see whether he gets better or worse. I took a lot of pictures of him today - I'll post some once I get them resized and stuff.

Oh shit. 
Maybe all the excitement of the move just got him really wound up? I hope he gets a chance to settle in....

Yeah, the stress of the transport and being tired and whatnot could have brought it on. I'm praying that he'll get a good nights sleep and feel better tomorrow. When he got here, he could walk (albeit a bit clumsy), was giving puppy kisses, and cuddling with the other dogs...right now he can't even hold his head up, let alone stand. I have him wrapped up in a warm blanket, and he looks pretty comfy, and he's not seizing anymore - just laying still. I feel like maybe I made a selfish choice, having him make the trek up here to be with us, but I also feel like the alternative was having him put down in the vet clinic, so I wanted to at least TRY for him....I dunno.

Gabe just died in his sleep. I was petting him, and telling him he was a good boy and he just stopped breathing. He wasn't seizing, and looked really comfortable, which I'm grateful for. I'm glad he spared me from having to make the choice for him, as to when was his time to go.
RIP Baby Gabe - you were loved
