dogmate Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Mother nature has stepped in, it must have been really hard on your daughter. We had a horrid time with our litter born in Feb (same Mum). Lost one at birth, one at 5 weeks to what the vets thought was juvenile epilepsy. He started fitting at 21 days and although on medication was still fitting at 5 weeks, then at 7 weeks a carpet python was in our houseyard and strangled another. We have since put in a sonic barrier and hope that works. On top of all of this I have been recovering from a disc replacement and spinal fusion (Nov 2011) and had hip surgery 20 Sep. My boy (hesapandabear) turned 12 on 25 Sep and I lost him 02 Oct to a tumor on a kidney which had spread to his liver. All in all a horrific year, roll on 2013 :) You have certainly had a rough year. Bring on 2013 im done with 2012 now but as my vet said tonight although the year was bad for us with losing our old girl and my other dog in feb had her leg amputated we still have 4 gorgeous bubbas who hopefully continue to grow they put on average 20 grams a day amazing stuff. Good lucjk to you for 2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The few stinking hot days we had I froze a hot water bottle (not a lot of water in it so it was still fairly flat) and covered it in a towel and they seemed to like laying against that. I also took the vet bed out on those days and used the rubber non slip camping mat stuff (which I wasn't super keen on - it was non slip for pups and Jazz but slipped on the newspaper so was always getting bunched up but it was definitely cooler for them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the ceiling fan and the air conditioner going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
