Lady - Fingers crossed, Low platelet count

[PennyB]

will she rest up ok?

Now that's another story LOL

[Joules]

Well, that sounds more hopeful 

Have you tried her with Golden Paste?  Might help with any inflammation 

[PennyB]

oooo that's an idea, thanks for reminding me

She's now on metacam and yumove (still on loading dose at the moment)

To be honest she's running around the house as if nothing was wrong and if her platelets are OK will be taking her to the smart clinic before christmas for acupuncture and their monitoring - that way I'll feel better that we're not missing anything (I know some swear by some of those places that swim the dogs but also know the clinic I go to has vets who know their stuff - plus when Wilf goes they give him the once over as well after his autoimmune incident 2 years ago)

Well, it certainly won't do any harm.

Have you joined the Turmeric User Group on FB?  Lots of info on there 

[PennyB]

Yes am on it but not getting notifications any more

Glad its better news today 
We put Ben on Yumove about 10 months ago and it has been great he is a lot less stiff and so far no repeat issues with his back, hope you see improvements for Lady too, it took about 2 - 3 weeks before I noticed a significant difference. 
Good luck keeping her 'rested'  cockers seem to have the 'take it easy' gene missing

While Lady is 11 and at vets she's perfectly still (when one of my vets 1st met her and she got off the table and danced everywhere he commented oh she does move) she is a working type cocker - may be not as busy as she probably was when younger (I don't know) but she's still keen and a little norty ninja in the house as she's the smallest but always manages to get higher than the others somehow

Worse is going out to walk the others as she gets quite stressy if we all leave her (I'm her 4th home) - so am having to leave one at home with her and keep swapping over - when Ruby was here she was ideal for this as she needed less exercise as she got older or was happy to oblige.
