I just wanted to say a huge sorry, to the ladies who's blogs I normally comment on regularly. I'm kinda chasing my tail this week, catching up from have a poorly teenager & dog last week!
Update on my poor dawgy, he has been given pain meds as he is suffering with arthritis in his hips & the vet also thinks he has some nerve damage to his spine.....no idea how or when tho! The only thing we can think of is, it happened when he was a tiny poopy before we had him. We had he at 5 weeks old so anything could have happened before then. Considering the s**ts that dumped him along with 6 other greyhound pups on the side of a major road in the snow in a wet cardboard box!!!
Anyhoos I'm just hoping these meds work, fingers crossed xx
This week at The Perfect Sentiment we have a great challenge for you!
