I am just about to leave for my mini break, decided to wait and take jasper along to the vets with my son..... on examination the vet thinks it could be a chipped bone in his shoulder, he as got to go on friday for a pre op,.......the orthopaedic will do x ray then decide if she needs to refer him for c/t scan........no treatment at this stage ,.....he can have two short walks a day and try and keep him calm,.....i am leaving him in the safe hands of my son who is devastated......a mums intuition is always right .....will keep you updated on his progress
Re: update on my vet visit Oh Lynne, so so sorry, but glad that you are going away , will do you good, Jasper will be fine with your son , hoping you have a lovely time ;D
Re: update on my vet visit Oh Lynne,I'm sorry for Jasper and you and your son too.i think you have said your vet is an orthopedic specialist so Jasper is in great hands medically .......and care unparalleled at home.You have a lovely break...Logan will be looking forward to it too.The hot weather will make Jasper keen to relax and slow down.everything sounds in place to investigate thoroughly and get him better
Re: update on my vet visit It's good that you went with your instincts and got him looked at. I'm sure they will get to the bottom of it and everything will be fine in the end Have a good break
Re: update on my vet visit back from my break,.....jasper is fine,tail wagging, jumping, and loads of kisses, ........angela yes my vet is an orthopaedic........she was not in on sat, i will see her friday, just hope its nothing to serious , why i have been away he as taught him a new trick to nod hehehe.....mark is taking the day off work to go to the vets with me,
Re: update on my vet visit Oh how cute......that was to nod in appreciation that his mum was home....both of them can do that!hope you had a lovely break and of course let us all know what happens at your next appointment x
Re: update on my vet visit he is going in for a pre op fri.......i may sound a bit thick ??? what is a pre op please ? had a lovely break got logan until tuesday night, it as been lovely having some time with him,
Re: update on my vet visit Don't know Lynne,I would have to google...is it blood tests ,heart check,respiration?to know how he will cope with any procedures....
Re: update on my vet visit Lynne, glad you had a lovely break with Logan. Sorry to hear about poor Jasper, I am sure all will be OK and well done on acting on your instincts and taking him to the vets. I hope all goes well and Jasper will be OK. I think pre-op is just like for humans, blood pressure, weight etc. to make sure he is fit before his surgery. Don't worry, but you will. Helen xx
Re: update on my vet visit i am very worried helen, my son mark is so upset, i have got to mask things over for the sake of him ???.......one way or another we will find out friday, i hope,.......we have took him for short walks on the lead,i don't think he can understand why we are not letting him have a run off lead, poor love,.....
Re: update on my vet visit One thing is for sure - he will get the very best of care from you and I'm sure he'll make a fast recovery.
Re: update on my vet visit thank you rachael,.....that means a lot to me,......only 4 sleeps,.....we are gutted to think there is any thing serious either way he will have the best care and love, i just hope when our regular vet the orthopaedic specialist sees him she will give us good news,...he as never once indicated that he his in any pain, brave boy
Re: update on my vet visit I know it's really hard not too, but try not to worry too much. We can worry ourselves into a knot and often the reality turns out to be a much smaller and quite manageable problem (much less than our imaginations led us to think). We're all right there with you too
Re: update on my vet visit so grateful to every one, thank you ....i would not have made it this far with out all your help and support ...i have not read any thing on google, when you read up on things they are always over exaggerated .....i will leave it in the capable hands of my vet ......thank you to all who have supported me
Re: update on my vet visit I agree Lynne - don't press that google button! Just freaked out by the Threadworm "thread" I just followed :-\ Hope all will be well with wee Jasper. Try not to worry - the wait is often the worst bit jac
Re: update on my vet visit your right jac,......he is not that wee now, a whopping 30 killo, he is still my baby so how big he is
