Aww Nic, really feel for you - you've had more than your fair share of problems with your doglets  :-* All I can say is, you did such a wonderful job of nursing Rodaidh back to health and happiness, I'm certain you will do the same for Tilly and she'll have the best possible life she can have.....whatever the prognosis.
Take care..and big hugs to you both  :luv:

Oh Nicola, big hugs to you and Tilly :luv:.  I really hope that things don’t deteriorate any further and she’s able to keep doing all the things she loves to do.  I’ve never met a fitter dog and hopefully that will sway things in her favour.  Once she’s able to, if you ever want to meet up with me and Brodie for an on-lead walk then just pm me :-*

Ditto above from me  :-* :-*

I'm so so sorry Nic, sending huge hugs to you and Tilly. Even if she can't work anymore, you may find that she starts to accept a slightly different way of life more easily than expected. She's such a bright little lady and you'll find other ways to stimulate her I'm sure. :luv: :luv:

So sorry to hear about Tilly Nicola.

I really do feel for you and can understand what you are going through - and that is just having had to keep a bengal contained for several weeks.

Sending lots of love and hugs to both you and Tilly from us all here down in London.

I'm so sorry to hear this Nicola. I hope that the condition can be stabilised and that Tilly can go back to doing the things that she enjoys, or you can find different things for you and her to do and enjoy together if she can't do quite as much in the future.

What she said.  ;)

So sorry Tills is having these problems Nic and it seems like it is going to be a long haul  >:(  Tilly is so lucky to have you as her mum though as no one would take more care and do more to make sure she has the best possible chance of a full recovery.  :D  I don't envy you keeping her quiet for 6 weeks though - blimey you will have to find the doggy equivalent of Sudoku to keep her occupied. :-\

Hope your lovely girl is feeling better now after her horrible day  :luv:  Sending big hugs to you both :bigarmhug:  Hope Ro is being sympathetic to his sis  ;)

I've nothing to add that hasn't already been said, hope the next six weeks fly by and are not too stressful for both you and Tilly.   Sending hugs to you both and hope that when you go back to the vets, you receive more positive news   :-*

Ditto from me too!!

I hope the 6 weeks rest goes quickly.....does she have to be crate rested? or can she be small room rested? I fine small room to be much much easier on all of us......the crate seems to drive them and me demented wheras being shut in one room but with us lifting on and off sofas etc is much easier - I only crate then if I have to leave her unattended - to stop her jumping about like a loon!!

Good luck Nic xx
