  1. yes - it would be great if he can see someone sooner to help get relief .. and sars - I have certainly been thru this - more times than I care to remember and it hurts .
  2. Please do not leave him another 48 hrs. He is in pain and no longer eating. Sars- I'm sorry to say - I agree . he is very tired and in pain, and shutting down because of it - letting him stay this way until Thursday is very sad
  3. ..and lucky he is that ! Cute. He is a bit of a bossy boots ..and quite vocal .
  4. actually it's more like .."Well we've stopped now ..I can jump out if you open that door ... nowwwww.... ? "
  5. :) I am glad ,actually that she will still be in hospital for the extra time ... and she will LOVE being back home again!
  6. LOL .. so now folks will be happier to let their dogs out , cos they'll know where they are ?
  7. Smoke & Don ???? They are both in the bad books for zipping off chasing things like, at WARP speed. They are peas in a pod, sadly ... Trouble is not allowed to see the pups face to face - just through wire - she just gruffs at them ...
  8. " I am not ready to let him go yet. He is a beautiful dog and I want to try everything first." I understand that , but sometimes that is not in our pet's best interests..if it drags on with no drastic relief ... he is a lucky boy, and I know you love him lots .
  9. Sight , of course is not 100% .. responds well to movement at a distance ..but can also hunt ants etc close up :) His right eye was not quite normal when it opened , but has improved a lot! It makes me sad ..if he has his back turned ..and is walking away when I call - the ears prick up ..and he bolts ......... directly away from me ..then gets lost & confused. he does not misinterpret sounds - knows food wrapping /kibble in jug /a whistle/his name /a car door ..knows exactly what each represents ... he is a good advertisement for the double merle gene
  10. Not sure how I will manage this .. Here's an idea what my "speshal" boy is up against . While he hears well - the locator doesn't work accurately a lot of the timeIt can be troublesome ..and will probably take a lot of work to use signs now ,instead of sound ... the worry is calling him away from danger!! In this case, I waited til he looked at me, then started making sounds ....
  11. Rebanne said it - take a step back . Do his good minutes still outweigh the bad ? is he happy - or is he 'going thru the motions' I knew with our old Gert recently ... that morning, the fun had left her eyes - just like that . She was just "there" .. but with no spark . Still walking /eating a little . She was helped over the bridge that day . You will perceive things differently ...
  12. aahh - thank the powers for solid friends . waggy is good - her poor tummy must feel so sore
  13. That is promising, GB - it's great she is showing some interest . Here's hoping !
  14. awww... don't they look wonderful!
  15. oh ... Poor little girl . Hopefully she can stay in hospital until she gets some strength back ...
  16. Oh Beth, I am so very sorry. Know there are thoughts flying your way ????????????????
  17. Really sounds like she needs a hospital stay Horribly expensive though ...I know. It is SO hard watching them go thru stuff like that ...
  18. Did they check for a foreign body , GB ? I hope that she can recieve some support at the vets via a drip or something - how awful for you .
  19. sorry, GB - poor little girl Have you offered her everything ? ice cream/roast chook /canned cat food / raw beef mince ....
  20. Hi :) A photo would be great , so we can see exactly . have you asked the breeder , or the vet ?
  21. I also remember!! he looks terrific now :) Thank you for the update !!
