Christmas at the vets - home and on the mend
« on: December 22, 2011, 02:15:38 PM »
Jarv is currently being put under to get what we think is part of a common burdock out of the back of his throat.  

We came back from a walk and he was grooming himself and all of a sudden he was gagging and convulsively licking everything in sight.  He threw up foam and bile a couple of times but the licking just wouldn't stop and he was licking walls/concrete/carpet.

Fortunately I'm a 10 minute walk from Howard his lovely vet but it's his first time being put under and he's so not a brave soldier at the vets  :-\

Spare the sooky boy some positive thoughts  :luv:

Yes, he's in the same place Ro went to when when I broke him too  :-\  - I would have preferred an M&S Food christmas  not an M&S Insurance one   :o

Will call you when I have him home Nic  :-* :-*

Thank you all for your kind thoughts  :luv:  stupidly can't concentrate on much - thank goodness I have Amy in the workshop today as we have 2 last commissions to post tonight!
