Poorly doggy
« on: September 18, 2006, 08:05:41 PM »
I think Dally Wally Doodlebug is coming down with something as he has been turning his nose up at food since yesterday - he hasn't had anything to eat since his breakfast yesterday :o Even when he has been ill in the past, he has always wanted his nosh :-\ He even refused a gravy bone earlier on :o  He isn't drinking much, just standing at the water bowl looking at me so I checked his mouth but I can't see anything untoward. He's not bothered about his walks either and when he is out, he is walking perfectly to heel!! He has been lying in the bedroom since I came home from work 3 hours ago - its lovely having a nice, calm, whinge free Dallas but I'm getting quite worried now ;) I'm going to see how he is tomorrow and if he isn't much better, then I'm going to try and get him an appt for tomorrow evening. Vegas has an appt for Wednesday afternoon but I don't know if I want to leave Dallas that long if he is still not himself :-\

Oh poor Dallas - feel better soon mate!!  :luv: ;)

Max was like this the other day when he had a tummy bug - he only actually retched a couple of times & wasn't actually properly sick at all, but was off his food for well over 24 hours & was very mopey & sleepy & dis-interested in everything for a couple of days or so - he soon bounced back though, after much worrying on my part. Maybe Dallas has got a bit of a bug or something, poor chap.  :huh:

You miss all that bouncing when they are off-colour, don't you?

I do hope it's just that he's a bit out of sorts today, and that he'll back to normal tomorrow.

Hope Dally Wally is feeling a bit better this morning Gill :huh:  It's lovely when you have a nice calm dog and you relish it for the first few hours but if things don't improve you'd do anything to have them back to normal wouldn't you :huh:

If he's still not drinking then I would be off to the vets too ;)

Well, my poor boy either has a badly infected testicle or its a tumour :'( Its about 3 times the size of the other one and is brick hard. He got 3 lots of injections and 2 lots of tablets to take for 5 days and I have to take him back Monday. No wonder he has been so miserable :'(

Poor Dallas; I'm so sorry it wasn't better news at the vets,Gill.

Hopefully the injections & tablets will kick in & he'll start to feel better.
