Re: Charlie's limp Brilliant news!! So pleased for you and the Choc boy....ive just hugged cuilli and brods im that happy for you!
Re: Charlie's limp Thank you all - so much. I'll come down to earth tomorrow and start worrying about getting the soft tissue / sprain damage healed up. But tonight, just relaxing knowing there doesn't appear to be anything too nasty in it. Charlie is waking up now. He walked over to OH's armchair. Charlie jumps up with his front paws. At this point, OH puts his arm around Charlie's bottom and hoists him up. I've never liked this rather rough (in my view) pressure on Charlie's rear end and have fallen into a habit of saying "his joints, his joints" to warn OH to be careful. I've said this since Charlie was 8 weeks old. Tonight, I opened my mouth, and closed it again. Much to the relief of OH. : ;D : ;D Charlie is now sound asleep on OH's tummy...
Re: Charlie's limp Sensational news!!!!! And kudos to your breeder too. I hope you haven't stopped at one glass ;D
Re: Charlie's limp Nope, just poured my 3rd glass (I'll stop now) after writing a hopefully not too soppy email to the breeder. I thought since breeders are so often cursed when it goes wrong, when it goes very right, I thought I should say thanks.
Re: Charlie's limp You are up and on here early ,you've just popped onto my cat post!Hope that's not because Charlie has been unsettled?an early morning after wine.....good girl!hope the chocolate one is ok today,I'm off to a Christmas lunch after I get the car to the garage....no wonder my dogs training is getting neglected,this week I am very time poor and dog mischief rich! Best wishes to Charlie x
Re: Charlie's limp I did get up early - Charlie didn't have a pee last night, so I thought best to let him out early. Plus I've got all my work to do that I didn't do yesterday! Charlie still hasn't had a pee though, and has been wandering around squeaking. He's just settled down on a mat now. Probably a bit sore from being pulled around for the x-rays. Have a good Christmas lunch!
Re: Charlie's limp Hi Julie only just had chance to catch up. So glad Charlie's x rays came back so good it's brilliant news he'll be right as rain in no time. Jen
Re: Charlie's limp Bless my boy... he is slowly coming round and back to normal...but he is SO clingy. He doesn't normally whine (only to embarrass me in front of gun dog people really). But he has been squeeking all day, unless he is actually allowed to sit on me. I reckon he didn't think much to being left at the vet's after all... Finished my work for the day - hurrah - so can play with him now. We'll take a trip out in the car, which he always likes, pop into pets at home to have a look round and see whether there are kids to play with on their way home from school, then a short walk. O, the excitement! clingy puppy by JulieTandCharlie, on Flickr if I lie on your feet you won't get away by JulieTandCharlie, on Flickr
Re: Charlie's limp So sweet!!! Poor Charlie - never mind, now you know how incredibly healthy his joints are, he'll be leaping around all over the place again soon!
Re: Charlie's limp Ah bless that gorgeous chocolatey boy. Give him a kiss and a cuddle from me xxx Maybe it's something in the air, Riley has wanted lots of cuddles too so I've been sitting on the floor doing an impression of a dog bed :

Riley is sympathy cuddling - need has obviously been communicated via the Lambie communication network...
Re: Charlie's limp Oh heavens , I just want to hug the chocolate drop , he is an angel , bless him xx
Re: Charlie's limp Ah when cuddles are being given out like that....we ALL want one,hope he's back to his boisterous wonderful self today x
Re: Charlie's limp Can't believe i missed this! So pleased to hear that everything is OK. I wondered about doing E. dog's elbows but she was OK after a week of enforced crate prison. she was up a height when she was finally allowed out. had springs up her bum ;D Must be such a relief that he's blessed with bootiful joints. my husband says that he thinks dogs are a bad idea for me as they cause me so much worry. on bad days i see his point but i think on balance i'll cope with the worry. the children are a massive worry too but no one would say that about children. When I die i want to come back as your dog though. Beautiful orvis bed in background. i felt extravagant buying Wolfy Beds until someone showed me orvis and i felt positively thrifty ;D i hate limps i do. off to see if i can find a further update on him.
