    Hope your dog can get a vet appointment. Agree that does sound like an infection.

    I hope all is ok with your dog. It is always worrying but even more so as they get older. Thinking of you. X

    The vet is pretty certain the dog has Idiopathic Vestibular Disease which is common in older dogs and similar to Vertigo in humans. She’s given her an anti nausea injection. I’ve to take her back on Thursday and if there’s no improvement she’ll have to go on a course of antibiotics as the alternative diagnosis is a middle ear infection. Coincidentally a friend’s dog had the same thing a few weeks ago and he was back to normal in a few days. The dog didn’t have a temperature after all despite feeling hot. 

    On the way back Mr SA’s scooter started to lose power despite being on charge overnight. I had to give it a push up the hill, fortunately this wasn’t as steep as the one he got stuck on last week. 

    He’s going to call the scooter place tomorrow to check the battery. 

    I’ve done almost 30,000 steps today and looking forward to jumping in the bath shortly.
