Hi all, Vet called this morning and wanted me to take the little fella in. Blood work did not show anything (which must be good, right?). So now he is at the vets having some further tests: Sterile urine test (I think they use a catheta (sp?)) Abdominal xray to see if they can see any blockages/growths... The urine sample that I took with me this morning had more blood in it, so I guess that is why they wanted to keep him there??? Vet said they will call when they have some news :rolleyes: I am so sad without my shadow today... Thanks for asking everyone. Jodie

Can't sleep... So I thought I would see if anyone had any ideas as to what his symptoms were... Thanks for the replies and kind thoughts... Ollie is tucked up in bed with his dad at the moment, snoring! I have to go back to the vet at lunch time today to get the results of his blood work, I will let you all know how we get on when I come home... Cheers Jodie

He does not eat anything at the park, he is on leash and we walk all the time we are out... I actually thought of a bait as he picked up something a while back in our back yard (long story)... I am just praying it is a simple infection that can be cleared up with some antibiotics... Thanks all Jodie

Sorry did not wait for replies... Just got back from the vet. We have to wait for the blood work to come back tomorrow. But the urine test had lots of red blood cells and was very concentrated... My poor little vegemite is resting on the lounge and we will go back tomorrow and get the results of the blood work... The vet did not give any indication of what she thought at all - now I will worry all day and night until I know what is going on... Thanks for the replies. Jodie

Hi all, Just a quick question as I am worried about the little fella (staffy)... He has been inside all morning (except for our walk earlier) and I just went in to let him out and there is drool all over the floor and dripping from one side of his mouth. Tummy tightens up if I press it and tail is tucked under (but waggy when I speak to him)... I am a panic merchant when it comes to him and race him to the vet, I am trying to stop this and was wondering how long should I wait with these symptoms before racing to the vet??? Thanks in advance

Sorry Jacqui... RIP Molly Jodie

So sorry for your loss Rozzie... RIP Gizmo Jodie

Thinking of you Jacqui, I hope all goes well for Molly over the next few days and she feels better... Good luck Jodie

Oh Rozzie, so sorry... Jodie

Warscars, I am sorry for your loss... 8 years is not very old for a dog like Tiny ... Jodie

Poor baby, I also feel for the owners as it must be hard for them... Jodie

So sorry for your loss Soniq, It is always so hard to say goodbye to the fur kids... Jodie

I take Ollie to the West Queanbeyan Vets, his favorite vet is Hamish ;) Jodie

Ollie used to have itchy bits a long time ago before I started using Malaseb shampoo and changed his diet to fresh meat (cooked cause he is fussy) and veges. He is washed weekly or fortnightly (whenever he needs it) and we have not had a problem since... Hope your little one is feeling better soon... Jodie

Some people just should not have pets... RIP little one Jodie

Ollie is nearly 8 years old and he never goes out of his own yard... Once or twice when he was younger for a wiz only but has not done it for years...

Ollie (stafford) loves his bath and goes so far as to enter the bathroom and sit at the bath if he has not had one in a couple of weeks... Jodie

Thinking of you all, that is a truely beautiful memorial for Brax... Jodie

Thinking of you and your boy... Jodie

Sorry Lenni, He will be running free with no pain now... Jodie

So sorry Sidoney, Like you said, just enjoy the time you have together... Jodie

So sorry fido, At least she is at peace now... Sincerely Jodie

Bless her... Isn't it amazing how, no matter how bad they feel they still manage a wag of the tail or a smile for you... Almost like they are telling you not to worry... Jodie

Hope she is better soon, will keep our fingers crossed for both of you... Jodie

Thinking of you and Jessie today Jodie
