ms700 Moderating Team 10,170 Member For: 21y 10m 28d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 06/12/07 05:49 AM Share Posted 06/12/07 05:49 AM Mate it was exactly 1 year today when our little Cairn Terrier ingested a tick, and it attacked his respiratory system. The poor little fella was on constant oxygen for nearly 2 weeks, and getting hourly massages from the vets on his lungs to free all the built up crap inside. The best bit for you is the fact that they know what it is.It was touch and go, but he pulled through. Just think positive, and be there for anything they need.

Our new pup the one we brough to get her pregnant, took a while to get his act together. Well he finally did and he went at it for a while then promptly got stuck and I had to seperate. He then tried to mount her agian, well not wanting to seperate them again, I took them for a run, she was not running at all well, and I thought it was errrr her lose of virginity. Well things could not have been futher from the truth and I found a tick 8 hours later under a brand new collar.She was fine at first and then fell down quickly, I am now a tad more educated on ticks, first sign vet, chances are far better than when they are really crook.The first two are of the crook dog Molly (the little one is the hopefully one day to be the proud father of pups), included a few photos of the hopefuully to be dad Elliot as he still has a few things to learn.May as well throw in a pic of the oldest and bitchiest as well Eden (black)Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
