persephone

I am so glad he's having fluids etc Hopefully he'll be fitter tomorrow .

Hi Until the vet has had a look at those feet, and you have had his gait checked out ..best to leave him quiet . Baby joints..and your pup is VERY much a baby ..can be too easily permanently damaged . he is at great risk of contracting PARVO as well, being so young, and without immunity from a vaccination schedule. Hold off for a few weeks at least .. when his feet/legs are checked out, he has another vaccination , and he is stronger.

OH I am so sorry. You've heard it before... but it is true - getting his wings will be a blessing and a rest. Thinking of you and Zedley.

LINK TO ORIGINAL THREAD Ely 2008 did you get in touch with Roseworthy? I think they'd be the people to ask in a difficult -to- diagnose scenario like you have with your poor girl .

Gorgeous Girl ... She did her job well, and no doubt will have her eye on her successor, making sure they do the right thing by you ;)

he is a very cute little fella !!

Glad you have found a vet .. pouring something into an ear with an unknown problem is probably not very wise

Run free over that bridge, maggie ...

!!!! oh Dear

If it were me, I'd be off to the vet ...Summertime, pup, all sorts of virus and bacteria enjoying teh warm moist weather ... chance of dehydration or serious gut problem.... best to get it looked at, and stopped before anything else develops.

Mozzie coils in spots the dogs/mozzies like to hang out I use the mozzie coils which come in a little tin hanger /container .. they cover a reasonable area ..and certainly help . Last year when we had thick swarms...( there were coils burning 24/7 ..hanging from trees.. on the ground .. in teh porch ..everywhere. just remember smoke rises.. do don't hang them high....if you place them in shaded/green areas..they will dter mozzies from resting/feeding there. if you don't have cats ...and depending what flea stuff you use .. consider a light spray of permoxin in the afternoon . I did this with all our`dogs everyday last Summer ... just a fine mist over head/legs/belly .

Hope she finds home soon ... sorry , just have to cue music ...

What a hard hard day ahead for you ... I will be thinking of you . I hope in one way she goes at a time of her choosing, at home ... so you are spared that last trip. Take care ... enjoy the cuddles

Seems you have some hard work to do .. I would suggest you immediately start on Nothing In Life Is Free , and K9Pro's Triangle Of Temptation. That will help give him the right ideas!

At the vet YOU use? Did the vet check include watching pup walk/run , joint manipulation , checking bite/teeth,eyes, scrotum , etc ?

the bleeding on top of the toes ..that suggests to me that he is not lifting his feet/toes correctly..and they are dragging. No more walks outside your yard for now, I suggest . He doesn't need them at this stage anyway ... There is a lot of training you can do in the backyard Any suggestions from his breeder? If you have not, it would be a good idea to book him in for the "I have a new puppy, is he OK, are all his bits there, and is there anything I need to be concerned about? " check with the vet. This first checkup is important, as the vet sees teh pup soon after leaving teh breeder- can say 'hi' without needles etc , and can note any problems which are present . He is baby- he will cry, and yes, he does need attention ;)

Oh, I am so sorry ..it must be so painful watching her go this way.

The news is sounding better .. Hope she has a nice happy Christmas .

That is a pretty good outcome , considering. to the folks who stood by him .

Did the owners not tell you teh dog's routine ..possible bad habits etc ?Hard for you to manage if you don't know what is 'normal' ...

No.. she may whine because it is uncomfortable.... . or she may whine with anxiety because she remembers something unpleasant probably happens after she does it.. most 9 week old puppies do not have control .. they may feel they need to go ..then... it happens. No time for dog door ..or even to get outside. Correcting puppies when they toilet indoors... or even just mumbling/ feeling a bit cross then can make puppies more anxious, which leads to muddled thinking, which leads often to more toileting inddors...and so on . Toileting outdoors is cause for treats and playtime ... it is a positive thing to work towards ...

Some info is needed , yes breed? food? housing weather conditions? is the breeder experienced?

Cats . They are beautiful and important and our companions. it leaves a very deep hole when they go ... R IP snow tiger .. walk proudly , and keep your tail high
