If he was diagnosed early enough, there is a chance at recovering. It depends on the severity of the infection as well as Leo's overall health. Without a physical exam, it would not be prudent to offer up a prognosis. You can read more about the condition below. https://www.petcoach.co/dog/condition/pythiosis/
