    Oh :D so sorry, peibe.
  3. Poor Lincoln ... if his gut is so inflamed and roughened- perhaps that's what the ultrasound picked up? Hopefully you get some good news today
  4. they start around 5 mths and finish up around 6 ,from memory. Are you also wondering when she will stop chewing , perhaps
  5. I am SO glad you took him for the second opinion - been there, done that with Hamlet - I know how you will be feeling.
  6. Just popping by - I see the curtain on jed's window is still drawn against the cold I thought the nightshift might enjoy a scrabble board ..here, and a few Reader's Digest Condensed Books Oh- and some hot donuts! Sleep well, jed. May tomorrow bring even more strength . 'night, all.
  7. Sorry you lost your girl... and sorry the autopsy didn't help find out why. What did her breeder say- did they have any ideas?
  8. Fingers crossed the drool is just from feeling really nauseous.... a simple bug . best of luck it is easy fixed
  9. Sorry, dogglesworth- butwhat a gorgeous image of her to keep in your heart!! Run free , seven .
  10. oops Don't feed them anything- make sure they are drinking ..and see how they are tomorrow /If they still have diarrhoea tomorrow- perhaps phone your vet and ask advice? Ours love the wheat and corn !!
  11. Does she lick during the day? If she doesn't ....maybe a different bedding- to allow more room for the baby bumps would make her feel more comfy? :0 ??? No idea, sorry .
  12. the less fuss YOu make- the less fuss HE will make. Glad he will be home soon.
  13. If she's doing this because of puppy movements.. and there is no visible spots/rash - I wouldn't put anything topical on....as this then may lead her to try & lick it OFF She could be just a bit uncomfortable/with twinges....and be doing the only thing she knows to try & relieve it. If she is otherwise healthy- and there is no rash.. I would be making sure she is getting gentle exercise to help keep her muscles loose and active.... and maybe some distraction in the form of bones etc .
  14. I agree- phone the puppy walking supervisor and discuss it with them first
  15. So he will possibly be lifting his leg? I don't know the setup- but guess there is no post or anything for this purpose in a pet loo? he may be now peeing 'with intent' and enjoy marking around his spot ? Is his pet loo clean and big enough for him,now? has anything changed around it? Are there any new dogs/cats around?
  16. :rolleyes: nasty way to do it - poor dogs.
  17. Hi - did /do any of her bloodline have entropion ( where the eylids roll inwards) or distichiasis (abnormal growth of the eyelashes) ? from memory, both are hereditary to a degree. if you are not satisfied , by all means see another vet- as, if it IS a case of lashes rubbing on the eye surface - there is a chance of ulcers forming. If it is a tearduct problem- then it may need fixing ... and if it is entropion etc it may need surgical intervention. It's been a while since I have had first hand experience - but I don't like to muck around with eye problems.
  18. A new garden bed with a new puppy? best of luck!! make sure the fence around your gardens is made so it cannot be climbed over/under!
  19. castration of male puppies is only a minor hiccup - it is not invasive like a spey- skin incision only .. so they don't really notice much You may not need your nutro dinner treat- often after anaesthetic they wil not want to eat- and it can sometimes make them vomit if they do- so don't push him to eat or drink. If he's not eager to, then he will probably just need warmth and quiet tonight... no fussing or extra work.. just see if he wants toilet- and put him to bed .Easy! Try & stop him running/bouncing/jumping up onto furniture etc for a few days .. obviously- this sort of activity can stretch skin/stitches ... no breakfast or water this morning- in case of vomiting under anaesthetic ( which is not a good thing ) ... and the vet may give you post-op instructions when you collect your boy. You will worry much more than he does!
  20. Morning all - I tell you what , this stack of pancakes nearly didn't get here! Those newfies lying across the doorway, and the other dogs crowded around drooling everywhere almost made me drop them Hmm.. Jed's curtains are still drawn- that's Ok - healing can need to be private for some time :) Hope it's going well.
