Ah no this is horrible. Big hugs to you all. :(

Just checked - Bones had actually just turned 14, he was born on Boxing Day and died on New Year's Eve 14 years later.

I have money put aside.

Yes I get liquid metacam for Merlin when he needs it. I squirt it directly into his mouth, because if I mix it with food I am never certain its all got inside him...

Oh poor love. :(

So sorry Kate - I feel like I know Reuben personally from all your stories of him, and he sounds a lot like my big softie Merlin; I can imagine your fury and upset at him being hurt, and how upset he must be in order to growl. I think if it were me I'd do a bit of positive reinforcement around...

Awwww I love her!!!! Thank you for the photos, has made my morning!

He's probably a bit busy... ;)

I've been so looking forward to this post! She looks absolutely lovely xxx

Sending you and Harley lots of love and support, and wishing all the very best for the vets appointment tomorrow xxx

I hope she starts improving soon. Merlin once had an infection in his foot, which in the end had to be opened so the pus could flow out. After that he got better very quickly.

Yeah. Poppy is 12 years and 2 months old. Today is actually the anniversary of the day we picked her up in Wiltshire and drove her all the way back to Germany with us! So I think that every day is a bonus from now on, and every day I make sure to show her how much I love her, and I tell her...

Hoping dear Harley turns the corner very soon.

Fabulous!

Oh no poor poor Harley. I really hope the antibiotics kick in soon!

So sad all these lovely dogs... Billy was nearly 16 (he was a labrador / brittany spaniel cross - they are very long-lived apparently) Bones had just turned 13 - he was one of those dogs who are fine in the morning, actually butt tucking in the garden, and in a coma by the evening. Liver failure.

Ah that is doubly sad :( Rest easy little Snoopy.

What about CBD oil? Has anyone tried it?

Oh I agree totally and I have used Traumeel quite a lot in the past but we are past that now... However, I don't want her to have an injection into the joint unless I am sure it is going to help her.

That's what we think, that she is not feeling so much pain but that the actual damage of course is not affected by the Librela. We are going to go ahead with the second injection in a couple of weeks, and then take stock.
