JoT Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Hi Jo I really missed the refuge How is the Tricks doing? Tricks is doing really well. I've taken loads of photos of him and he's featured in quite a few Tricky photo threads in Doggie Chat... Don't know if you've had a chance to see them?

Sue B Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 (edited) My name is Sue and I work in the Fundraising Dept of The Mayhew Animal Home. I have not fostered for the Oldies Club, but have fostered many dogs for the Mayhew, my speciality and great love being oldies. I adopted a 14 year-old dog - Hugo - in 2005 and he is still going strong at 16 years old In January this year I was asked to foster a 12 year old dog - Vicky - who was very depressed in kennels. She is still with me and for medical reasons is unlikely to get a home, so she is a long term foster and I may well be her last home.

oscarsmum Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 I've taken a couple of pics of the man himself tonight - my computer is SOOOOOO slow, its taken forever to download them He was a real giddy kipper 'cos we'd just finished tea and he was living in hopes that his big eyes would bring a titbit pay off (they did of course!) Oscar is fine, but we've got a vet's appointment tomorrow night... to cut a long story short, we bathed him on Saturday morning, then on Sunday, Monday and today, he's been slightly dizzy.... its as if he loses his balance. I'm obviously hoping that its something simple like abit of water in his ear affecting his balance, but am also really worried that it could be something more sinister. Its a really intermittent - in fact, in all probability, I'll get him to the vet and he wont do it, its just every now and then its as if he loses his balance... he hasn't fallen, just is abit unsteady on his feet. I'll keep you informed. Other than that, he's great - bouncing around like a pup, loving his food, cuddles and playtime, his personality isn't affected at all - its weird, and a bit scary... I'm really hoping the vet can tell us its something and nothing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fee Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Sorry to hear Oscar's been having problems - lots of luck at the vet tomorrow, I hope it's something that can easily be sorted out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
