So, you sleep in the basement?        

nope!!!!!!!

[glenn57]

I feel for the poor guy. Been this way all morning, and I don't have my buddy following me around.  had to coax him to come out and eat his food, hasn't gone out yet and when I made some toast he never left the bed. Even when my wife's dippy DIL came over he never came out.  Gave him an ibuprofen, hope it helps. And I have no clue as to what happened!!

might have to go see the vet...   and the poor things can't tell us anything...   good luck Glenn....

'zactly. I know when the fur babies around here have had issues beyond our capabilities or understanding, we're not afraid to seek professional help. Hope your big guy is OK without that.

[glenn57]

this afternoon he got up, went out side and did his business. he's still walking gingerly but he's up and around. my son stopped over and he perked up pretty good!!!!!

progress!!!!!!!!

That is great to hear Glenn.  Have you figured out how he hurt his ankle?

[glenn57]

nope.....not a clue!

[Dotch]

Good to hear that he's on the mend! 

[Bobberineyes]

Hope he comes around Glenn! It's his ankle and not shoulder?

[fishwidow]

Hope it’s not the case, but I’ve had a couple dogs with Lymes, Erlichea, and Anaplasmosis. This in spite of being vaccinated for Lymes. Anyway, I kept a bottle of doxycycline on hand and started giving it to them as soon as they showed signs of pain in the joints, usually limping. The doxycycline works quickly, and it’s pretty cheap, but you will have to get it from a vet. Good luck, Glenn.

[Bobberineyes]

That's exactly where I was going with it FW, been down that road also even the dogs being vaccinated.

[glenn57]

Hope he comes around Glenn! It's his ankle and not shoulder?

yea ankle and foot the way it seems.

but he's about back to normal. went outside with me. no noticeable limp and walking on that paw. not to mention the drool on my pants leg while i was eating and running off the dish when i set it down for him to lick off!!!!!!! 

i watch him pretty close at the cabin for ticks.....never had one i could see. and i do use frontline kinda stuff all the time. he'll get it again before i head back up!!!!!!!

I thought maybe that was shadow laughing at LPS story. I'm still chuckling thinking about it.

Shadow sure looks like Cooper.  Cooper has gotten lighter colored as he gets older.  Just a wonderful dog.  If he sees Jake doing something he shouldn't he gives me the look.  Like go check what Jake is doing.        I can't remember who here told us they were in the Duluth paper?  Thank you very much.

[glenn57]

Shadow thinks this weather sucks too!

[LPS]

Wonderful. 

[glenn57]

Yep. Definitely  shadow

I'm beginning to think dogs ARE clocks.

[LPS]

When one of us feed them and then the other one of us come in they try to get fed twice.  LOLOL

[markn]

Like a cold wet nose to the back at 6:04 every morning. Yep, I'm awake now.

Smart clocks.
