Hope you feel better soon. My husband had severe sciatica last year that lasted over six months. Ended up being prescribed morphine for the pain.
Hope you have had your hips scanned too. My back pain disappeared after my hip replacement
Being elderly we were never going to have a dog, certainly not a puppy, but due to circumstances we had Dudley a five month old. He is now just over three.
Hopefully we will remain active for several more years.
Certainly at the moment he keeps me going five miles a day at least.
Had open heart...
The only other dog we had was a rescue called Shadow. My daughter was nineteen when she died she was very much her dog. At 44 she still has the ashes.
The rest of her dogs, cats, rabbits etc are buried in her garden but she says Shadow never lived there.
Dudley is only three so I hopefully...
Would be so nice to have a hot outside tap. I had to make a really good case for the bigger sink just to wash Dudley. Dont know if he will go for the tapl.
We have a large shower stall with t
We have a large shower stall with two shower heads. Did shower Dudley a couple of times last year but I have to go in with him or I get soaked. We had the kitchen sink replaced with a bigger one so he fits in that really well
When Dudley was just seven months old we went to a DDay re-enactment on Saunton Sands. There were planes landing on the beach. Maroon with big bangs, smoke bombs, gun noises etc.
He never blinked or acted distressed. This was not deliberate
He has never worried about fireworks, lorries etc...
Some would say I didn't really train Dudley.
We went to three classes and hated them.
Somehow he learned to come when I called. Walks very nicely to heel and waits at the road when I tell him to.
I did some sort of long line (washing line) in the garden and used treats. He did just seem to...
I visit a border collie daily. The next door neighbours have two dogs which they send out into the garden when I let Dudley and the collie into the garden.
We then have several minutes of the next door dogs and the collie throwing themselves against the fence and barking.
The dogs can't see one...
Dudley is only little and is not fond of being petted when he is out on a walk. This only applies to adults he loves being petted by small children.. The ones he knows he approaches , the others ask.
It must be quite scary for any dog with a large hand approaching from on high.
Apart from my...
Chezeray (cat) Sweet pea (rabbit) Toyah (dog).
All lived to old age
Chezeray died in his sleep at 21.
Toyah was PTS at 13 with mammary. tumours.
Can't remember how old the rabbit was but he was found dead in his cage one morning
All buried in my daughter's garden
Having spent a lot of time with pregnant women I found dogs liked to be around during the check ups. They were always very alert when they heard the heart beat.
Several of my ladies had the dog in the room while they delivered
One particular lady had the dog as her birthing partner and he lay...
Twice a day. Off lead in the morning for at least an hour. Then we go and visit the collie we see every day. They both play in the garden. Afternoon/early evening an hour. That doesn't include coffee mornings, lunch outings and visits he does with me. Given that he is a small dog that seems...
