Wednesday night went well Cyril played until he nearly dropped, so when we wanted to sleep I suggested Richie put a blanket on the floor by his bed.

Thought wee Cyril would find that reassuring and I was right it worked in fact so well that very soon he hopped up on the bed with Richie.

Cyril curled up next to him and slept peacefully the whole night and never disturbed once which was brilliant

First thing in the morning I called our vet and made an appointment to have Cyril checked out, have his yearly injections and micro chipped and have his long toe nails clipped.

Richie took him and Marleen to the park  in the morning where he had a great time before coming home for a great breakfast.

We decided that we would have to feed him up as he was rather thin, we were also told by Rebecca that he had lost weight at the other place.

The vet checked him out and said that his heart and lungs sounded very good but that he was too thin for a dog of 5.

He said that his long nails and lack of enough muscles indicated he had not been walked for a very long time, maybe as much as several years.

We were advised to give him extra food and plenty of exercise in order to bulk him up and turn him into a fit and happy dog.

Something we are extremely happy to do, he is a very sweet, playful and loving chap, he has settled here very quickly.

Which is great looking forward to Cyril blossoming and enjoying his life.

    

No Point In Worrying Before The Event

Nice sunny day today especially lovely especially after the horribly dreary dark miserable day yesterday.

Sadly did not go out as Richie had to take Spike and Marleen to the vet for their yearly injections.

We were both tense about the appointment as Richie was going to discuss Spike with           the vet.

His back legs have become increasingly wonk these last two weeks, up to then some days they were and others not.

The vet recognised Spike’s symptoms right away and wants Richie to go back on Monday when he will take a blood sample and send it to the lab.

It could be one of two things which can be treated with medicine, which will not cure the problem but will ease the symptoms.

The treatment will give him three to four good years, which would be excellent for us all especially for Spike.

Felt so worried while Richie and the dogs were at the vets imagining all sorts of things, it was a relief to hear Richie’s report.

Now we have to wait until Monday and the blood test, hope the vet’s theory is correct and it is one of the two treatable things.

Going to try and put it out of my mind until after the weekend, no point in worrying before the event.

Today is Friday and I am going to enjoy this evening and the weekend, live in this moment not the ones to come.
