Animal House Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Mac Attack breath, I has me one of those as well WM. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westiemum Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Thanks all. He has very few teeth and generally his breath isn't too bad but at 4 am 2 cms from my face it can be a bit whiffy! The funny thing is he seems to be getting more demanding as he gets more demented! And after his laryngeal tie-back op in June 2013 he now barks like a demented seal! He stands at the bottom of the stairs and at the top of the stairs and barks in a deep raspy voice - very intentionally - to be lifted up or down - he seems very concerned to be left behind and its a real 'what about me? Don't forget me!" raspy bark - its really very funny. And of course he barks in my ear at 4 am if he needs a wee... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westiemum Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 I'm also finding he's ravenous a couple of hours after he has dinner and his anti-convulsant.. So I'm giving him a snack at bedtime to tide him over until morning in the hope his 4 am munchies disappear... we'll see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westiemum Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 Mac had a bad weekend - very very wobbly and back end collapsing to a sit more often than I'd like. Started preparing mentally... And then I came home last night and he's back again - fairly galloped down the side path when I went out to find him. And he's so much steadier again. He's asleep next to me on the lounge as I type. And he's becoming a fussy old boy... he wouldn't eat his breakfast this morning which worried me - until he gobbled down Sarah's - pedantic old boy!!! So relieved... but the time is definitely coming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loving my Oldies Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 It is such a roller coaster, Westiemum. **Hugs** to you and Mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westiemum Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) It sure is DD. We're getting to the point of 'probable lasts'... Next Tuesday he'll have his 'probably last' clip... But I am looking forward to a night on the lounge with him tonight watching the Crows!! He's still a snuggle bum Edited September 18, 2015 by westiemum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westiemum Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 (edited) Maccles and I have had a lovely night - snuggled up on the lounge. Even though the Crows went down tonight in a less than stellar performance (to put it mildly), I'm incredibly proud of all they've achieved this year after our coach's murder in early July. And I'm very proud of my old boy in his Crows jumper!! Yep Caz, a Crows fan to the end!! Edited September 18, 2015 by westiemum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm very proud of my old boy in his Crows jumper!! Yep Caz, a Crows fan to the end!! Westiemum, I thought of you and Mac whilst watching the game tonight. Even though I'm a staunch Lions fan, I was barracking for the Crows tonight, after their horrendous year. Hope you and Mac had an enjoyable night, despite the outcome. Cuddles and nibblies are great for football viewing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panto Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 That's simply adorable that jumper. I was hoping for a crows win too, as a swans supporter would have loved a GF with crows v swans! I was at the game when we recently played them, amidst the Goodsey travesty, and still crows fans were one of the loveliest - quickly replaced my previous second team for this year I think. What a nice night being able to spend with Mac, I love that you appreciate this so much in the now, not in hindsight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loving my Oldies Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I reckon a few photos of Mac in his coat would galvanise the Crows to bigger and better games. Mac for Mascot. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
