Hobbit,

What's the news on Guy? The suspense has been killing me ALL DAY!!

Posted

Yes, Hobbit, how is Guy? Sorry I've been a bit off beam and didn't enquiry before this. I hadn't forgotten him. Hope things are going OK for him and you.
And have we heard from Mei Mei? I've got so much to catch up with.

Thanks for asking.

I posted under "Health" in "Guy's Radiographs" and in "The Halo is off!"

He's been sick from an infection in his leg. The vet would not listen to me. So, I administered 250mg of Amoxicillin for 14 days. Guy feels GREAT! I wasn't going to sit back and let his leg rot off, because the vet thinks I'm being a worry-wart.

HOBBIT the vet is there to stop us worrying, :D make him/her do their job :D



You are exactly correct.

I get aggravated at them sometimes, just like a medical doctor telling you that your back can't possible hurt. Um.... well, it DOES!

I spend every day with my dogs, I know their quirks, their likes and dislikes, their silly antics. So, I sure as heck KNOW when one of them is not feeling well.

For someone that only sees my dog(s) once in a great while or sometimes have never seen them, to tell me --- "Oh, he's okay, just probably tired"... it grates me.

Absolutely. When I moved to this area about 12 years ago, I tried a couple of the Vets in the larger town (still 150ks away) and ended up in a smaller place with the Vet I have now. He LISTENS to what I tell him and asks questions. I have told him if I get sick I'm going to him :lol: as the local Doctors have the "I'll tell you whats wrong, dont want to hear how you feel" attitude.

Hobbit,

What breed/breeds do you have? The dog in the Avitar looks like a Kelpie (though it can be hard to tell from the small size of the pictures. ) And seems like you are pretty anti cross breeding of Border Collies (With good reason). (Or is that someone else?) Anyway, just curious. :D

Yes, that is an Australian Kelpie.

We have working Kelpies and Australian Cattle Dogs, mostly. We also have 3 Border Collies and 2 Anatolian Shepherds.

Yes, that would be me.....the "anti-cross thy BC" person.
