persephone

You have given her rest ..a wise decision. It's always hard ,....

This is my take on it as well.

There is a thread HERE.... it may help?

:) Thanks - he is just so cute!!

Daisy playing in a puddle and a cute and TINY April pig a couple of years ago, with Dougal cat.

..and maybe Gilbert needs to be sprayed with aerogard or something all over each morning?

:D great news!!

How old are the two resident dogs?

Oh No :( Hope Gilbert picks up quickly - l am glad you are near a vet !

There is.. but it is not being held lovingly as they get a needle :( Lucy, you are one of the more fortunate, in that someone cared.

Oh dear she is a chewer!! Hopefully things move through!! :)

How's it going?

LINK excerpt:

aahh .. I know that feeling . Hope all goes well with your girl :) When Hamlet was much younger he cleaned up some broken eggs outside, and hoovered sticks & leaves as well quick trip to the vet next day .. lots of barium balls... some surgery, a few days in hospital, a new best friend called "muzzle", and an uneventful recovery :) his wasn't actually in the stomach ..and hadn't caused and damage to the intestine, so surgery was fairly simple .He was cut from A to B though- no keyhole !! They wouldn't send him home until he was eating (canned stuff) and toileting ok .. and then he was on wet food with a small amount of psyllium husk for a while . He wore a muzzle pretty well continuously for about 12 months - I was petrified it would happen again..and he is SUCH a hoover (not a chewer) he still has muzzle on when we are somewhere there might be junk to pick up.... The soft basket muzzles which allow full mouth opening/drinking are best, and although I wouldn't leave one on unsupervised, he used to wear his at night for a while after surgery to stop licking etc (instead of a cone)..and he wasn't allowewd out of bed without putting his muzzle on at a later date .

R I P beautiful girl ...

Is there anything in THIS THREAD which may help?

:) progress !

Oh, My - haven't the boys grown!!! More Jack pics?????

Good news indeed!! :)

Our dogs(not whippets) chase rabbits and feral cats , and sleep with our own cats :)

:) :) Guess who is having much fun!! ;)

if you're just in SA .. IMO it is not cold enough at present to need a hot water bottle .. he is possible too warm .(also hot water bottles, if chewed, can burn a pup.. and /or make a BIG mess , also are dangerous if pup swallows bits ;) Pups & soft crates are not a really good mix ..as they can chew out of them , or scratch them to death also, be careful what you feed as treats .. too many fatty things like cheese spread/peanut butter may make them a bit upset in the tummy ....

If it is the same spots all the time, and she's chewing .... it could be some minor pain happening in joints . It could def. be mozzies, but they usually can only bite on bare skin, or sparsely furred skin... yes, we do need photos :)

:) :) Well done . ..a symphony in pinks !
