I am having a really hard time understanding this post and what the OP wants from us....sounds like sick dogs and leadership issues but I cannot be sure.
SO I am sitting here saying "what?" myself.

Latest bad news....
We thought the minipin was on the way to recovery. Well last night I was away the dog convulsed.
The called me. The called the country vet. Country vet kept guessing what was wrong. Since we have no facilities I told him to give dextrse. That darn vet gets there 10am. I advise brother who is there on get the dog down here. I also awake on a vet 8am( I just buy some supplies but havent tried services). He said try kidney liver function. Anyway 12 noon I see dog a minute.
3-4 weeks ago I see small wounds. I take dog for a bath and betadine for wound. This Sunday took dog for bath and saw wounds (betadine again). Today I say why new wounds also t3?
Anyway kidney liver ok besides cheap to do. t3 and 4 will be expensive.
Jefferson, we're having a hard time understanding your post. What are the wounds from (hopefully not from the other dog)? Is the dog at the vet for the convulsions? What is a "t3"?
If the wounds are from the other dog, please keep these dogs separated.
t3 thyroid? t4 diabetes function. More likely t4 because wounds but really hard to guess. I just knew it wasn't kidney liver and I was right because of old wound closing and new wounds opening.
Also minipin bit 1 of the vets handlers. Sorry had brain surgery so sometimes posts are not clear. Was editing it when time ran out.

Ok, I understand now. Sounds like both T3 and T4 should be done, because of the weight loss and the wounds. I hope the vet addresses the convulsing, unless either of those 2 tests are what will diagnose it.
ok now am getting confused too. Vet drew blood and ran test again. Liver damage. 1700 SGPT. Is the number high? What can I do? Thanks. t3 t4 ok. Sheesh...
??? Sorry didn't know that! Am still at work country whole time . Just call 2x a day. Anyway still wondering what those numbers mean as my brother relayed the info. Will call the vet tomorrow.

Edit reason: grammar
Minipin got home this tuesday. Will be a wait and see. From what the vet says the liver damage is can't be reversed. Might be old age or poisoned. Will be on meds for 2 mos. sheesh. Hopefully he will put on some weight. At 4 mos we will see if SGPT number go down. Wish us luck.
Meanwhile have some luck putting the dog in a laying down position. Since giving meds means not getting biten, we use 2 man operation. 1 person to hold the neck and pinch the jaw to help him relax. 2nd person to inject syrup in mouth. Usually either be person 1 or 2.
Later I found I could used a rubber brush to calm him down and lay him down on floor. lol Other caretaker was able to putting in down. At least no more bite injuries. He is is learning bite inhibition.
