Hello Woofers!
It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret!
Now, you know how much pain Holly was in yesterday, ooh the agony, the pain
and she could hardly walk let alone limp properly!
That nice vet sent her home with a bottle of pain killing jollop and a list
of instructions for Old Two Legs and a big bill!
This morning Holly jumped down off the bed and trotted down stairs then lept
onto the sofa for a cuddle with The Missus.
No sign of a limp but OTL wasn't taking any chances and sent us off for a
walk around the football field where we couldn't get a chance to run or jump on
the playground stuff!
Lunchtime we managed to get a wander along the sea front and there was OTL
walking behind Holly telling her to 'Slow Down' if she looked like she was
getting a trot on!
So, Holly has spent today not limping and OTL has been looking at the vet
bill and wondering if Holly would have got better on her own!
Holly reckons that it was a miracle the way her leg has got better!
Yeah, I still reckon she was pulling a flanker!
OTL had an appointment with the dentist this morning, just a check-up and
after that he was declared as not needing any work, that made him a happy
puppy!
Of course, there was the bill to pay but I suppose he didn't mind cos the check-up
fee is less than the one where they are drilling holes in his teeth or pulling
them out!
OTL has been inspecting Holly's paw checking on any lumps, bumps or excess
hair between the pads but all is well, so, we will be keeping on with the
jollop just in case she has a relapse!
I see that Auntie Sue is off on her travels again, I bet she is touring all
the eating hoses where she is!
OTL has been playing about with the bits of paper again and with a bit of
luck he will be almost finished by tonight!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Holly got a limp!
Hello Woofers!
Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here again!
We have had a bit of a traumatic day today.
It started off yesterday when Holly started to limp on her rear left-hand leg. She was OK when she was just walking but as soon as she got into a trot, up would go the leg and she limped along on three legs.
This morning when Old Two Legs took us down the beach, the limp was not so bad but after she came home, it was back to limping when she walked!
Ring Ring, 'Hello, this is the Vet!'
That was it, an appointment for an hours’ time and off she goes on her own to be pulled and prodded and twisted and stretched!
Now, before all this, OTL had done that to Holly’s leg, Pulled, Prodded and Twisted and Stretched and Holly hadn't yelped or showed she was in any pain.
When the vet did it, she pulled and prodded and stretched it with a little more vigour and that made Holly uncomfortable!
It was decided to give Holly a course of anti-inflammatory jollop and if her leg is not better in one week, we are to go back for x-ray and knock out drops!
You could hear OTL's wallet scream all the way back home!
What was worse, Holly is not allowed any jumping or running and has to go for gentle walks only in the football field behind the houses.
I on the other paw am allowed to go down to the beach and enjoy all of the sniffs I want, all to myself!
Lunchtime The Missus walked Holly around the field, on a lead while I headed off to the beach. There was a hairy horror of a woofer who wanted a rough and tumble game with me but I was not in the mood and I had to tell him to 'Woof Off' in no uncertain way, so he went and had a game with OTL who gave his tail a tickle!
So, poor Holly is not allowed any rushing about, she has to be quiet and stay on the sofa and not jump about!
That means I am first to the food bowl or the treat box or OTL's lap to pinch some of his nibbles!
Result!
See you tomorrow!
