Oh poor Sir H. Hope he is feeling better and home very soon.

Aww poor little girl! But I bet she'll have a great life ahead of her.

Well, drain is no longer in - thanks to Sid! I took him to the vets for a checkup this morning where we realied he'd managed to presumably eat the one end of it despite wearing a lampshade!. Vet decided to leave it but then phoned me later in the day because she decided to remove it following advice from a specialist. He has all air under his skin that cracles, most disconcerting! Please keep paws crossed that they won't have to open him up and put in another drain. He is now wearing the largest buster collar there is!

Beyond belief!

Happy gotcha handsome Ollie!

sorry, drain is still in.

Vet is v pleased with his progress, we have to go back on Thursday since drain had to remove in.

Sid's a little perkier today ad is very cross about being confined to the house, off to the vets tomorrow!

Oh poor Sam, hope things get better!

Poor lad! Hope it clears up soon!

Poor Sid is back, feeling very sorry for himself (stoical bassets usually bounce into the house demanding their dinner following an op). He looks a bit like a patchwork quilt and is wearing an Elizabethan collar to add to his miseries. However, he did jump up at the sound of the biscuit barrel!

They did not operate on Sid until 2pm and the hole ended up being v large after the 3 cm margin was taken so the poor lad had to have a skin graft. His 10 minute op lasted well over an hour and a half with 2 vets. He's on a drip, has a drain and on heavy painkillers so will not be home until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest!

Unfortunately a minor horse crisis at home meant that my stay was very brief, I had intended coming for the whole day!

Please do Ange.

Please think of poor Sid lab our Oldies foster that stayed - he has just been diagnosed with a mast cell tumour on his hind leg. Please hope that on Friday the vet is able to remove a good margin and it's a grade 1. As you who have met him will know, he has the most wonderful temperament and how he ended up in the pound is a complete mystery to us. Sid on his arrival: Sid now: (Ange, Cocoa is quite a bit better thanks)

Done!

My thoughts are with all involved.

Because OH is now lying unde rthe patio witjh an axe thru his head?

Looks like I can go to the Nadder Valley show now. Val, do you want me to poison the dogs bring along some doggie treats to sell?

Oh no! Dogs can cope with liver problems for ages on a specialdiet.

Absolutely disgusting! Signed.

Oops sorry, see it was yesterday they were having them, silly me!

I would not give KC vaccine so close to going, it's barely a full 3 days before you get there.

Hi Selina, all the best for your house move, take it you're staying in the same area? Poor Ollie, hope vet checks is ok, mine have hardly moved for the last week or so.
