Hello everyone!
I have an almost 2 year old cocker spaniel named Milo. He is the love of my life.
I've had him since 12 weeks.
He has been the hardest most infuriating dog I've ever had but most rewarding.

It won't let me upload a picture as of yet but when I can I will

Welcome to you and Milo

 

[foxcocker-93]

Thank you judy - who do you have "owning" you ha ha

 

[JoanneF]

Welcome from me too.

I'm 'owned' by Timber, who is a cross between a Jack Russell and a toilet brush.

 

[foxcocker-93]

Hi Joanne.
Timber sounds like an interesting combination!! Lol
How old is he?

 

[JoanneF]

Oh, he's an old boy now. Almost 15. But you know what they say about Jack Russells , they go on forever.

I hope they are right.

 

[foxcocker-93]

Oh yes - they do go on forever!
They are feisty little things. We had a childhood one named max!!

Unfortunately not long ago we were given a sad diagnosis for Milo
He has severe luxating patella in both knees. Grade 2 - bordering stage 3. He's not even 2 yet.
Hes on daily anti inflammatory. He only had one incident of limping but will need surgery.
We are going for a second opinion as we didn't like the way the vets handled the situation.

I'm owned by Jasper, the lurcher in my avatar. He shuffled off this mortal coil almost 3 years ago, but he still has a firm hold on my heart I'm sorry to hear about Milo's problems, and hope that one way or another it can be fixed or managed.

 

[foxcocker-93]

Lurchers are so underrated
I've tried to update my avatar - it won't allow me to. X

 

[foxcocker-93]

Waheyyy!
Here is the little sod - flying saucer head!!

 

[JudyN]

Oh cute!

There is an issue with avatars. Try the method below:

Click on the default avatar at the very top left-hand side of the forum (in the photo below, just above the balloons). When I do that, I get the pop-up in the photo below. Can you get that far and if so, at what point do you get the message?
