Bad night with Dallas - any ideas?

Millie did the whole staring at the corner of the room and ignoring us thing when she was in a lot of pain with her calcified discs.. tramadol seemed to relax her and take the edge off the pain so she was more normal

 I hope he feels better soon .. love and hugs from us.

Charlie recently had his infected anal glands flushed as one was repeatedly filling (within a day or two). It had developed into an abcsess even though he was on antibiotics.

I suspect this is going to be our next stage. Vegas had his flushed & packed when he was about 4 after continuous repeated infections and he didn't suffer another one for years so I know how effective it can be - the worry is that Dallas doesn't do well under anaesthetic but guess that's a bridge to cross if and when we get there.

Hope the flushing puts an end to Charlies troubles - good job dogs don't have much sense of dignity 

     
They managed to do charlie with just sedation.
