SS's 2008 Debt Free Diary

ciarasdreams

I hope that you both have a successful day at the vets and that you have remembered to get your dog a special reward for puting up with being poked and prodded at.

My dog had to have a toe amputated because he had a dew claw growing into it which no one noticed until too late and despite numerous creams /antibiotics etc he still had the op. he was a new dog afterwards and went on to terrorise the neighbours dog for many years- so good luck its not all bad.

Ouch, poor Woofer!

Well done on the 11 NSDs, I wish I could say the same!

Verbatim

Hope woofer is OK ss?

When's pay day?

Thanks V. Got to take him in about half hour but I'm pretty sure he'll need an amputation. Vet said if the infection hasn't gone in a fortnight (today) then it will need to be done.

He's right in the wars poor thing. Dunno how he's gonna be able to walk either coz he's a big old boy! :undecided

Pay day isn't for ages yet! :rolleyes: :rotfl:

Awwww poor woofer Hope they can prevent an amputation

Our family woofer is on his last legs ... he has advanced heart disease and it isn't looking hopeful at all as he keeps having funny turns and his heart is beating too fast. He is confused as well and short of breath. He has cataracts in both eyes and is deaf *sigh*

He is nearly 13 so he is a very old woofer, think we will have to let him go soon *sob*

Awww I'm sorry to hear that Mrs S.

Make sure you appreciate him and spoil him as much as you can while you have him. I'm an absolute sucker for animals. We all agree in this household that we'd miss him more than anyone else if they went! :rotfl:

Well we've been given a 2 week reprieve if you like. Another fortnight of anitbiotics but stronger ones. Seriously, these b*ggers are the size of flying saucers! :rotfl:

God knows how we're gonna get him to eat them as he's become suspicious of cheese now! I suggested buying a big chocolate cake!

Have you tried a jam sarnie SS, or peanut butter (anything sticky) - it works a treat with our dog

Buffythedebtslayer

crush them between two spoons and then put the power either in food you KNOW he will eat for sure or mix it up with something with a very taste, that he can lick off your fingers.


I never could get the hang of chucking them down Ben's neck (my dog, the best dog EVER)
