Tinker needs a check up I think :( Updated pg 2 ;)
« on: April 15, 2011, 01:17:13 AM »
Not sure why I'm posting really  :dunno:  - maybe a problem shared is a problem halved & because I know you're all such good listeners   ;) :-*  

Since Tinkers OP last year, she's been plodding on quite well really - she recovered fantastically, with only one slight set back sorted by anti inflammatory meds, however..... of late she doesn't seem too good - can't quite put my finger on it & there's no pattern to it but she's got her mum worried  :'(
Her breathing's not brilliant but mostly OK & she copes but sometimes ( again, it's happening quite randomly) she's not doing too well at all & on a recent walks, she 'really' seemes to struggle quite badly  :'(   She seems to of slowed right down too - some days I take her to the field just over the road, she barely makes it back, slows up & wants to sit  :'(
I've also noticed on occasions she's not managing to eat well & the other day she couldn't cope eating a carrot & was choking & had trouble shifting it -  :dunno: & is sicking food back up  :'(  
...... there's nothing specific but you know the feeling when something's not right, that's what I've got & when I came in from work, OH said he too thinks 'somethings' not right either  :-\
I made an appointment for Monday for my vet but also spoke to specialists at Hythe - she asked me to get her seen sooner, so we're booked in today ( but with a vet who doesn't now her  :dunno: so not sure how that will work?) & if they think she needs it, then to take her up to Hythe.
I'm just hoping it's a regular type of poorlyness that some meds will help make better  :angel: ....& just wish she would complain a bit more but bless her, she just still wags her tail   :luv:
Her appointments at 3pm, so will let you know how she gets on  ;)  .....then maybe I can stop worrying too  ph34r

Gee Lindsey, sorry to hear that Miss Tinker is poorly. Hopefully the vet can get to the cause and help her to recover.  :bigarmhug: to you and the best possible wishes for Miss Tinker. I'll be waiting for the update.

 I hope the vet can get to the bottom of Miss Tinkers malaise, and she is perkier soon.   :bigarmhug:

Sending you lots of hugs Lindsey  :bigarmhug: :bigarmhug: and Uncle William send Cocker kisses to Tinker.

I hope it's just something ordinary like an infection and that Tinker is back to normal soon :luv:

Oh bless her  :'( :'(

Just a thought, I know most of what you've explained is because of other problems but do you think the heat might be effecting her as well?

Hope it goes well today  :-* :-* :-*

do you know, I did think this the other day too - although temperatures aren't 'that' high, perhaps Tinker will be more susceptible to even slight rises  :dunno:  She still gets 'really' excited to go out  :happydance: but stamina doesn't always last as long as it used to  :-\  & maybe more panting is aggravating her throat?? ....will remember to mention it - thankyou   ;)

She's quite happy cuddled up to Eeyore giving him an occasional sucky kiss  :luv:  :005:
