Not 5 minutes later threw it up!!...DUH!!
Mum has to keep an eye over me in case i do it again....hope not as the vet said more serious if I keep being sick...ie brain tumour!!
So friday night and feeling sorry for myself i'm going back to sleep.

Thursdays are neither here nor there!!

Had my usual milk for brekkie...then had walk so i would poo!!...I did too ha ha.
Mum went to work so I played a bit with Bella and Kip the cats..(when i said played with I meant chased) but dont tell mum...grrrrr
Mum home for lunch gave me a bit of cheese on toast..I do struggle with toast after having 6 teeth out few weeks ago!!! but it was yummy.
And I went for another walk..
Mum home for the day now ..17.00 hours so had a stroke and cuddle then I bounced over to my food bowl, falling once in the process!!
Had stewed steak AGAIN!!!! bored of it now(whispering), but I have spied chicken in the fridge which will be mine as mum dont eat meat... so I hope its either snack time later or just wait til tommorow?
Time for a nap before my last walk of the day later on ,,,

Old pics of meeeeee!!!





Some old pics mum found of me..before old age and grey hair took its toll,,,
The white dog mooching with me is Ollie, my old jack russell friend from years ago and picture of her pups.

Canine vestibular syndrome

On 18th October I had a funny turn, I was sick and then fell off the settee....ouch!!
The vets diagnosis was Canine Vestibular Syndrome....which means I feel sea sick and fall over.
I prob will never fully recover but I should be better in a few weeks.

I had a relaspe recently where i was sick but slowly i'm getting better.
One of the most noticeable changes in me is quite embarrassing really.....blushes.
I wont poo in the garden!!! I have to go out on lead and then I will do my stuff!!
Upside is I get 4 or 5 walks a day now!!

My mum is very patient with me and has even placed rugs all over the house so I dont slip when giddy and fall over.... hoorah.
Yawn...time for a nap now..Zzzzzzzz

Happy Endings

Few weeks ago my mum was trying to find a new home for 9mth old staffordshire bull terrier dog.
His name Is Bruce and hes very lively and fun loving too. Woof woof.
The owners couldnt look after him and their 18mth old son. So mum jumped to the rescue and he is now living with a couple with 2 older children who she knows from their mutual love of  Wigan Rugby League.

Bruce went to his new home on sunday and has a huge garden to play in...good times ahead for young Bruce. Hoorah.

Tuesday Blues

Well its cold, wet and dark out there today and mum has to go to work. Me? oh yes I work I have to babysit the cats....I keep paid in treats. Woof woof.
A friend of mine had some bad news about her dog, I have sent my wishes by the power of twitter..its amazing what you can do these days..techno stuff. Paws crossed.
 My thoughts are with her today x
My clumsy mum(whispering) cut her finger opening me a tin of stewed steak which I gobbled up, she'll have to use other hand today to open my food...hee hee
Back to nap for a while...brrr its cold zzz

In the car


On my way home from vets....

Me

One week ago I had my tea and then I was sick,,,bleurghhh all over the floor.When I got off the chair to clean it up before mum saw it I fell over.....didnt know where I was!!!?? Mum came running in from the kitchen..her eagle eyes spotted my sick but was more concerned about me in a heap(well i say heap but i'm only a small dog but heap sounds better) on the floor. I was so out of it..my eyes were racing, like being sea sick..it was not pleasant viewing. Hence I was placed in the car, and for the first time ever I wasnt happy to be in the car as I was poorly....I knew there was only one place we were going and that was to the VETS!!!
