Re: The appointment is made..... I'm so pleased the op went well and your lovely boy is on the road to recovery.
Re: The appointment is made..... How is dex doing Angela? I hope he can get rid of that lampshade soon and be back to normal dexter but with a shorter tail
Re: The appointment is made..... Hi everybody and thanks for asking Annabelle,Ii hope Puzzle has stopped being upset after her op x I wasn't due to take him back until Tuesday but I just wanted the healing to be checked over so I have nipped in quickly In between Paulina's appointments just now. She says it is perfect,barring any surprises now his stitches will come out Tuesday yay,yay,yay! ;D .....blummin cone will have to stay on thought for another 2 to 3 days after that...... A whopping 23 days :'( still the end is in sight. I so feel For everyone who has had a dog with a really serious injury and long recuperation...this has felt like a lifetime Bye for now,the water park nearly finished me off yesterday....visitors are currently orientating them selves round Dubai Mall( the biggest in the world.....that will keep them busy! ;D) I'm heading off now to meet them for lunch.....Dex being babysat and flat out asleep.....I a little bit jealous ;D x
Re: The appointment is made..... Glad it's going well....and that the end is in sight. What an ordeal.... You guys have been such troopers. I take my hat off to you both. And to Dexter for being his good natured, lovely self throughout! You guys are such great owners, any dog would be thrilled to be yours. If I am reincarnated as a Labrador, please buy me. But you would have to let me on the sofa.
Re: The appointment is made..... Lovely news on a stormy Sunday morning , so pleased that you are nearing the end of dear Dexters ordeal Angela , you have been a star
Re: The appointment is made..... So glad to hear this... You will post a pic of happy Dex post-cone, right??
Re: The appointment is made..... Lisa,I will post a picture of Dexter and I leaping in the air for joy......and then one of the smokey bonfire I plan to build to melt the plastic peril down!ha ha ha! Ah Rachael you are too kind,course I would let you on the sofa! you have all been so kind with you comments of support but I know that all of you would have done exactly the same to get your four legged ones better.......I cannot wait until he can have a really ,really good run ......we'll be doing a bit of total recall revision though today....I'd like him to stop running and come back before he reaches Abu Dhabi! ;D xxx
Re: The appointment is made..... Oh Lordy,been for our vet appointment and not come away as happy as I thought we would...... The great news is that his tail has healed perfectly....unwelcome news was that the stitches have to stay in for 2 more days but hey ho after all this time if 2 days will make sure everything is properly healed it's no biggie......just cone for a few more days aaaaagggghhhh! Further unwelcome news is a diagnosis for his low red blood cells Erlichia Canis...........I'll start another post for this.....
Re: The appointment is made..... good new its healing well,.....2 days will past so quick.....just going to google Erlichia Canis
Re: The appointment is made..... Great news on the tail front (back?) two days will fly by I googled Erlichia Canis and didn't understand a word of it but I hope it's curable or manageable for you and the beautiful Dexter lots of love from us xxx
Re: The appointment is made..... I googled it too, and while it looks serious if not treated, it seems it responds well to antibiotics, so good thing they found it! Dexter, get well soon.
Re: The appointment is made..... Fab news about the tail Two days will be been and gone before you know it.
Re: The appointment is made..... Oh Happy Day!stitches out............tail ,completely healed but residual scabbing requires the cone to be worn for 2 more days boo not a problem really after all this time just can't wait for him to be completely free..... Here's a little video of the new Dexter Model...still just as handsome and still just as waggy but a bit perturbed about why I was talking to him through a glass screen.... I should have practiced a bit more I couldn't orientate where he was to where I was ....hope I haven't given you all motion sickness! ;D Blummin flickr is slow and I've got to go out.....I'll follow on with the vid later x
Re: The appointment is made..... yes the post i have been waiting for, wonderful news, looking forward to the video
