They're both a lot better, thank you. Poos pretty much back to normal. Merlin is still rather subdued and with very stinky flatulence. They had their second injections today. We've mostly been in the garden with just a couple of little wanders over to the woods today. Fingers crossed we have a...

I really hope this will give you some answers Alison, and a way forward. Poor Red. But this is definitely for the best.

I'm on poo collection duty for the next three days. Six little vials of brown stuff!! :poo::poo::poo::poo::poo::poo:

Oh Snowie, I am so sorry that sounds so painful. :(

Alison, did your vet check for giardia? Just asking, as Red's symptoms are similar to Poppy's and it was the vet's suggestion yesterday (once we had ruled out poison).

We had a quiet night (I slept downstairs with them) and they both seem much better, thank goodness!! Poppy had a pretty normal poo; no poos yet from Merlin (not surprising as he has had nothing to eat since yesterday breakfast, which he then sicked up undigested in the evening). Both are hungry...

It was quite shocking how quickly Merlin deteriorated - he had nasty diarrhea over night and this morning, and although he seemed bright and fine in himself I took him in to our vet at 09:00, since we'd had such a fright with Poppy two weeks ago. The vet and I both thought he would be ok without...

Poppy is back on antibiotics as well - it's the third episode of bad diarrhea for her in two months. The vet suspects giardia... So the plan is to get them both over this bout of diarrhea and send in poo samples for checking.

I'm really worried about them.

Oh boy - Merlin is really unwell, pouring fluid and blood from his bottom, so bad that I had to take him to the emergency vet this afternoon. He is on antibiotics and although he doesn't want to eat, he is drinking. And now Poppy has got bloody diarrhea too. I'm not messing around with this -...

I really feel for you Alison, and hope Red continues to improve. We are also having a terrible time with our dogs with HGE.

I'm sorry to hear Red still isn't really feeling her best. Fingers crossed she turns a corner soon.

What a lovely boy! Looks like you are a good team already!

Big hugs for you and Red. I hope this is just a blip and she is ok.

I'm glad the eye seems to have cleared up, and hope Red gets her energy back soon. xx

Wishing the lovely Good Girl Joy a most happy birthday!

So glad Red is better! Ugh, the giving treats thing... and then when you say no thank you, they act all insulted and upset.

Sounds wonderful!

How's Stanley doing?? I hope no ill effects?

I'm very relieved to hear that Kipper and Red are both doing better! Poppy is doing much better as well.
