Rocky
Over the Rainbow Bridge
Rocky is doing well and his weight has increased by a kilo in the last week. He is getting better with other breeds as we meet quite a variety on our twice daily walks. The walking is also improving his poor muscle tone and he is looking really good. Hopefully someone will want to give him a new home as he is such a sweetie and we cannot keep him on a permanent basis.

Thanks for the message. Have been away so Katy has been to Barkinn Kennels. I am so pleased with how she has been cared for but very glad to have her home ... really missed her!. She is still lame on her front right paw and is back on antibiotics and anti inflamatories. Follow up vets visit tomorrow morning so will know more then. She has been a very good girl. May not be at training for a few weeks as it is more difficult in the school holidays.

I've just had a phone call from Chris the vet and the results are unfortunately inconclusive. This means a tumour can't be ruled out but at the moment osteosarcoma doesn't look likely which is fantastic news. I have spoken to Jayne who reports that her pad and toe are now swollen so we have a 9am vet appointment booked tomorrow and we will see what the next step is. Glass of wine time for me I think 🙂

Hi Deb, Jayne has decided to keep Fizz at home and postpone her holiday until we get the news.... if it is good news, then she needs to be admitted to have her operation asap.... I didn't think she had lost weight as she has the appetite of a horse! She is on anti-inflammatories and pain killers following her op so is not limping currently 🙂

Ruth, I can't stand it! The waiting & not knowing is really awful. I know Fizz is on holiday at the moment, which is so lovely for her, so not actually with you, but just wondering how she is in herself? Is she still limping badly & does the lump still appear to be growing. Is it my imagination, or has she lost some weight too? She looks really 'ribby' in the new window seat photo . . . poor baby =(

This lad is so desperately unhappy - which makes me desperate for him to find a home or if anyone is interested in fostering him, this would be a good start. He would definitely need to go to a home with other greys if possible as he suffers with separation anxiety if he is on his own.
