Smokey was running high fevers. I think the highest was around 106 or 107. I was having to take him to the vet every 2 or 3 days which he hated. The vet would keep him overnight to get his fever down which he hated. This was before we knew he was positive. They tested him again and this time he was positive. I ended up changing vets for Smokey and the new vet is the one that started him on the equistim back in March. So far he hasn't had anymore fevers. I think we are going to cut him back even more. We are going to try a shot every other week and see how he does. I am a little nervous about doing it.
