@Candy that's wonderful, what kind friends to think of Joy and to help you. Hope you build some lovely new positive associations for Joy. Let us know xx

Aw bless you, sleep what's that!! Hattie is truly amazing, she has been up and outside, wondering around giving hugs and kisses to us, walked with me along the hall on my pal zimmer. She lay by my bed, ate a whole steamed chicken breast and peas, she is a truly darling wonderful girl...

Joseph has high functioning autism and has been into space since he was 3 years old, he is 23 now. Space will always be his obsession. When he was at primary school the boys were talking about football, Joseph was talking about NASA, he talks about it for hours. It's a fascinating subject. x

@Loraseal Stunning photo's of gorgeous Hunter xx :inlove:

We were glued to this, my son Joseph is spaced obsessed. What an amazing project. x

It's so high in protein that's the problem. I am going to have a chicken breast steamed for her to see if that helps. Thanks Joy xx

@Cath She can have tuna which she has had. She is only allowed this and steamed chicken once a week due to her kidney issue. Not allowed sardines as high in protein which needs to be avoided. Her kidney problem makes feeding her alternatives so difficult. xx

Thanks Cath. This morning Hattie got up out of her bed walked all the way to the back door and outside for a wee on her favourite wee spot. Amazing. Her appetite is not good, she has hardly eaten anything since half a can of wet food yesterday. We are getting plenty of water into her. Still...

Update. Hattie still hadn't had a wee by 4.00 pm so the vet wanted her in. They scanned her bladder which was full, they manually expressed the urine so she's much more comfortable. Checked her ears for infection, absolutely nothing at all. She is standing and by some miracle when David came...

Thanks @Heidrun It seems odd that she didn't check Hattie's ears if this is a cause of vestibular. I will get her to check. David got her some cans of Royal Canine Renal wet dog food which is the equivalent of the kibble she is on, so hopefully that will encourage her to eat a little more. xx

The vet just called. If Hattie hasn't had a wee by 4 pm we might have to take her in to go on a drip. @Heidrun I mentioned Vestibular Syndrome, that's what she said it could be, apparently she mentioned this yesterday but I am not taking much in with worry and upset. I asked about antibiotics...

Thanks @Heidrun I'm so worried about her lack of toileting. I'm not coping at all, completely heartbreaking. xx

Thanks Cath. No change, David lifted Hattie to her feet which she can't do herself and she managed to stand. She ate half her dinner last night but only a little breakfast. We are worried that she hasn't had a poo since Wednesday and no wee since yesterday morning at 8.30 am. David carries...

@Heidrun Hattie does have Perhipheral Neuropathy so this could have triggered it. She had two illnesses last year 3 months apart, the latest one was November 2020 but this seems worse and different. Last year again this all came on very suddenly, she had heavy panting, rapid heart rate...

@Heidrun Thank you so much, I have just been reading about Vestibular syndrome. The vet did not check her ears or take her temperature. I have a sling so that's good to help her. The only problem with other food is Hattie has early kidney disease so is on renal kibble with tinned tuna and...

She wouldn't touch her kibble but ate a tin of tuna no problem. xx

:'(:'( Sometime after 4.00 am this morning Hattie has had a mini stroke. I was awake and she was absolutely fine. She is unable to stand up, her head is tilted slightly and her eyes are flickering (Nystagmus). This has happened so very suddenly from yesterday enjoying a 5 mile walk, playing...

We've gone from -10, snow, heavy frost, gales, rain to 12 degrees today. Bonkers!! xx

Happy Belated Labrador Day from my two not Labrador's :giggl: xx Super beautiful Hattie :inlove: xx Super handsome Charlie :inlove: xx
