Absolutely. Fluid loss / lack of fluids. can really wreak havoc on a system, you have to replace them one way or another. Just the simple act of rehydrating can make a world of difference...and sometimes just plain water isn't going to get the job done.

Do you have the ability to put a hot water bottle between his front legs against his chest? (the back legs in the groin area is better but if this is due to an infection at the banding site that wouldn't be a good idea). This can help with bringing the temp up to normal.

Well I think he last night he got up to say good bye. His tep was back up Emily I just forgot to report that. But this morning he had passed away before I made it out to him. He is out of pain now so that's what matters. Thank you all for your help. O and I did give him bounce back last night also.
