Yantan Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Well done Scoobs Archie had a bit of an unpleasant visit to the V.E.T.S this morning where he was jabbed and had his anal glands emptied. He swore like a trooper at the V.E.T. Anyway I took him and George on what was supposed to be a nice walk but Archie got attacked by a Husky. No harm done - the owner of the Husky was in like Flynn and pulled his dog off. I didn't fall out with him as he aplogised and was very worried about Archie - however Archie now isn'this usual sunny little self and is all "woe is me" so if anyone has some good thoughts going spare we'd appreciate them. I have double checked him and there are definatley no wounds and he's walking OK but perhaps he's bruised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merledogs Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Good boy Scoobs Gentle squishes for Archie He's probably just a bit shaky cos he's had a shock. RMF : I have coughed so much that my diaphragm, stomach and chest muscles hurt but I still can't coughing, so it makes it doubly unpleasant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReikiAnge Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Poor Archie Will send him Reiki - have you got any Arnica you can give him? At least the husky owner jumped in and apologised, tis more than many do isn't it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacobean Posted December 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 (edited) Poor lad. We have a few Huskys around here and they are always kept on lead. One reason being cos otherwise they would beggar off but the owners also have told me that they don't do other dogs. He's probably feeling sore from being knocked about bless him. Hope he's feeling better later. Alex. Really hope you can shake this off soon. Have you spoken to the specialist about Max? I've been washing clothes for 30 odd years so why on earth am I reading the manual before shoving stuff in the machine Edited December 18, 2008 by Jacobean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yantan Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Archie says "fank yew" for the good thoughts and for the Reiki from auntie Ange He's wrapped up in a blankie on the sofa. I haven't given him anything - like Rescue remedy - as I thought it best to just leave him in peace. He gets stressed up when ever anything has to be administered. I just keep popping thro to soothe his brow and tell him what a poor boy he is but never mind he'll soon be feeling better. I've got him a bit of steak out of the freezer to see if that will help him feel better Alex I hope you are soon feeling better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReikiAnge Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Hope Archie is feeling better soon, I'm sure having a rest will help I sometimes put a drop or two of R/Remedy on top of their head and tips of their ears and rub it into the fur/skin, if that would be less stressful for him, once he's woken up? I also have liquid Arnica, as the vet advised for Sweetie, so I can just drop a few drops on the dog's nose/upper lip so they can lick it off.

purple_mog Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 hello all - rather odd day at work, mixture of being productive, then absolutely nothing going right Going home shortly to snuggle my dogs, eat home-made lentil and coconut curry and have a serious pressie wrapping session!

Yantan Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Ange where can I get the liquid Arnica please? I'd like some to keep in my first aid kit and that would be the perfect way to give some to the boys when needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacobean Posted December 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Alex - It's a Hoover OPH714 D and it's now hoperating. Write down a load of questions you want to ask on the day at the specialists cos when you're there you may forget something. Will be thinking of you both. Is it the building on the Wirral you're going to? That one is very swanky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReikiAnge Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Marion, I tend to buy my homeopathic remedies from Helios - if you just ask for it to be in liquid form, that should be fine as I have done that with a number of remedies through them. I tend to buy mine in 30c "strength". http://www.helios.co.uk/contact.html - I usually phone the order through and they are very helpful and quick to despatch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
