PLS help, my puppys liver enzymes keep rising :(

Hey guys. I bought a puggle (Patron) almost 2 months ago. He is supposed to turn 3 months in 2 days and a few days ago he was in my backyard with my brothers puppy who is about the same age (a boxer named Diesel) they apparently ate some seeds that happened to be poisnous to dogs. A little after that I bathed him and we went upstairs to my room to sleep and he started throwing up continously. After the 6th time or so I called a 24 hour emergency vet and took him over there. They were able to stop his vomiting but they asked me to leave him over night so that they could keep him hydrated incase of anything. When I got back home in the middle of the night my brother told me his puppy was throwing up too so I took him there too. So the next morning I picked them up and took them to their regular vet. Diesel my brothers dog is doing a lot better and I guess he didn't eat too many seeds which comes to a surprise because he has a heart murmur and he is really not supposed to be alive but we have done everything to make sure he doesnt die. She checked Patrons liver and his enzyme level was up to 130 by the next morning they were up to 230 last time we checked they were almost at 300. They have even brought in a specialist. I am willing to pay ANYTHING and I do mean ANYTHING to make sure he stays alive. I don't even want to ask what level they are up to anymore because it's honestly killing me. I went to see him yesterday and he couldn't even stand up, he has no energy. The vet has asked us to leave both puppys there to keep check on them and last week if you would see them playing you would notice how much more energetic my puppy was compared to my brothers, now my brothers puppy tries to play with mine and mine can't even stand up

. I have a lot of hope that they will go down soon. Some people might think its funny but this little puppy means a LOT to me and I was wondering if anyone knows of anything I can do? Or if anyone has gone through a situation like this and your puppy survived? Here is a pic of both of them.. my patron is on the right and diesel the boxer is on the left. Just click on the link. I love them both.

i liiked up christmas palm they are listed as non toxic you sure they might not have gotten into antifreeze sounds like with the live# rising just ask your vet is any way some was spiled it just takes a small spoon full to kill but the christmas palm is a safe plant for dogs and cat just asking also how is your pups today

I'll make sure to ask but then again I'm not too sure of what the name of the tree or where it came from. Well I went this morning to see him and play with him so he doesn't think i'm just like leaving him there alone and he looked better in the sense that he was walking around and looked more energized. The vet sent in the blood work to see how his enzyme level is so we're waiting for her to call with the results. Where is it that you looked up the christmas palm tree? Thanks a lot for your concern, it does mean a lot.

just google toxic plants for dogs and non toxic plants for dogs you will get results hope your pup feels better soon

well I'm really sorry maybe you should try giving him chicken and rice because my dog ate a mushroom and the vet told us to do that.

I'm so sorry. I don't have any answers for you, but I totally understand how quickly a bond can develop. It's not silly at all to want to do everything you can to save her. I hope you get good results with this next set of tests.

I would hope that your dog is on IV fluids to flush out his system. That is essential in these cases. Also, antifreeze is known for causing renal (kidney) failure, not liver failure. Be sure to get rid of the plant so they don't get it again when they come home.
