Andy, best wishes for Dave to get better. They do make you worry don't they. I remember when Rory was in dock for a stomach blockage, only swallowed a huge soddin' stone hadn't he? Blocked solid. Anyway, he (Dave) will be home soon I'm sure and he will soon be after the sticks and balls etcetera again. Your dog? You can't beat him for a mate... And sometimes the best person to chat to as well.  |

Shxxt fella did not realise you were going through that crap when I saw you sat nite, we could have had a chat about it... I sober up very quickly when I get serious, especially about animals. Hopefully everything will be ok.

Sorry to hear about your friend. Glad it sounds like he'll be back sniffing about in no time. He's a fine looking canine. Dogs are the best. |

Hi Andy, Glad to hear the big fella is doing fine. As a former owner of several Labs & Retreivers I'm well aware of their enthusiasm for a good game of fetch. Agreed, no sticks! They're chewing fools and can pick up splinters and all sorts of nasty's as well as more serious and acute injuries like Dave's. Tennis balls have always worked nicely (unless they decide to leave one on the stairs at night and one finds it in the darkness Yes, I've gone ass over heels on that one. Fax |

I have a friend who has trained his dog to chase the t*rds from out of his (the masters) bottom!
It's a sight worth seeing, and I'm not kidding. He'll find a bush, he's not too bothered about how big it is, then drop his drawers and get down to business. His dog goes bonkers, and then starts running around him, barking and jumping in the air until, I suppose, he detects something in the air other than himself. Then the nose goes between the lucky owners cheeks and he starts dragging out the lucky jobby. He's a dog of real class, if limited intelligence and I think he has what dog fanciers call "ratting blood" in him.
I would imagine it's a good aid to constipation relief, and I'm sure any New-Agers reading this would probably confirm his holeistic approach.
I just thought you might want to know that...

Bloody Labs eh?
If he's anything like ours, he'll be 35 kilos of dog, with 2.4 grams of that weight being brain.
That brain occupies 90% of its capacity trying to get food, and the other 10% looking guilty.
Hope he makes a full recovery, sounds like he will.
We have a cat called Chas, for the simple reason my wife wouldn't let me call him Dave.

Ok, well I picked up the big fool from the Hostipal for Cannine Idiots yesterday arvo. Whilst I think we were generally pleased to see each other, I was a bit shocked to see that he's now shaved bald like his owner and this has lent him a more than passing remeblence to an iguana. There's a ten inch incision from his chin to his sturnum which was to let the air out of his neck muscles and chest (mediastinum). The Docs had taken the strange yet inventive decision and neatly clipped his wound together with eighteen staples rather than using the more traditional stiches. I expect they'd run out of thread and raided the stationary cupboard for inspiration.
Anyway he's perked up a lot this morning and we've been for a gentle stroll. He's starvin' marvin' because of his palette wound, so all he can eat is soup liquidised with Pedigree Chum. I've not tried feeding him on t*rds yet H, but I might go for a curry tonight and give it a go in the morning.
Seriously, the RVC Hospital is a truely amazing place, with some of the most skilled surgeons in Europe. It's a damn sight better run and more efficient than my local NHS hospital and I really couldn't thank all the dedicated staff adequately enough.
So it's heartfelt thanks from me and Dave to all the well wishers both on here and privately. Maison Blanche felt like a very long way from home on saturday and for the only time in my life I wished I wasn't at Le Mans, oh apart from that time when I was arrested (wrongfully of course). I'm sure there's sunnier days around the corner for the boy.

Good to hear he's home Andy, as you said, he'll be back to his old self soon. Animals have a remarkable ability to ignore the fact that they are seriously injured and just get on with life, while we humans act like we're on death's doorstep everytime we stub a toe. Fax |
