Tommo
Over the Rainbow Bridge
As I sit in the office typing this, I can see Tommo through the window all snuggled up in his coat & blanket and curled up in his donut bed in the kitchen run just watching the world go by. LadyVictoria you are so right, I made him a beautiful bed this morning, smooth blankets and corners all tucked in - only for him to pop in behind me - take one look at it and promptly rearrange everything so it looks like a bundle of old rags!!! Got to love this cheeky, gorgeous boy. xxxxx

l agree with Alan & Pam on this one. Blood tests are not always 100% accurate, and it's your dogs health that is at stake, and not the vets dog.... You know Ruby better than the vet so you may have to be more insistent. We have had similar problems with vets in the past. Please don't be afraid to put your opinion across...after all...you are the customer. Our current vet will always listen to our opinions and concerns, because, as he says,we know our dogs far better than he does. Some vets do seem to like to play a waiting game, but will he be any the wiser by Saturday...l doubt it. Please, if he won't listen to your concerns and is not willing to consider starting antibiotics, then l would seek a second opinion straight away. lt's better to be safe than sorry. Luv to Ruby. X.

Have had an update from Nelsons owners. He is settling really well, being very good with the cats and the other two greys in the house, he even made it up the stairs, coming down wasn't quite so easy! It's so lovely to know he has found his forever sofa.

Tommo
Over the Rainbow Bridge
If you are looking for a Greyhound who will help with the housework, Tommo is the boy for you! Bed making is his speciality....but it has to be to his own specification which is basically the messier the better! Hope someone will give him the chance to show them how special he is. Xxx

If you are worried and you don't want to wait until she might get worse perhaps it might be better to speak to the vet tomorrow.Pam is a nurse and with humans where meningitis is suspected they start antibiotics anyway as they can be stopped when they know its not meningitis.If the vet still refuses to treat her I would seek a second opinion especially as she has had it before and the symptoms are similar.Go with your gut feelings.Hope she's ok,let us know how you get on best wishes A,P, Ele and Paddy xx
