WHY ARE MY DOODS ALWAYS SICK?

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

I just dropped Guinness at the Vet, and they decided to admit him at least for the day to run some tests. I feel like these guys are always sick, and it's making me crazy. I try so hard to do everything I can to keep them healthy, but it doesn't seem to be working. Guinness had an upset stomach on Tuesday, some vomiting and refusing food. I thought it was an IBS flare up, so I didn't worry to much. On Wednesday he seemed fine and wanted to eat again, so I gave him plain chicken and rice, and he held that down with no problems. Yesterday he stopped eating again, and was lethargic. This morning when he refused breakfast, I knew there was something wrong. He is a little dehydrated (although he has been drinking with a little coaxing). Now when the Vet sees me they "work up an estimate". Today's estimate is $600....this after $1000 for Murph a month ago. Thank heaven for pet insurance! So, I can't even imagine what's wrong with the "little Dood". I hate that I had to leave him there....he HATES being away from me. It's always something....this has not been a good week!

Oh no.... ! I hope vet finds it to be nothing serious!!!

[Linda and Murphy]

NOT my buddy Guinness,
Big hugs, my friend. I'm sure you'll get the good stuff now. No diet for you. Sure hope you feel better.
Your pal,
Murphy

I hope tomorrow is a better day for all of you!

Oh NO, JANE!!! Not Guinness now! I hope he feels better quickly! Is Murph taking care of him as well as Guinness took care of Murph when HE was sick? How is Murphy doing? Sending lots of HEALTHY HUGS your way! Feel better!!!

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

Guinness is home, and I'm so happy to have him back with me. He's on meds, and I need to call the Vet in the morning to let her know how he's doing. He seems very tired....Murph can't figure out why he won't play. As a matter of fact, Murph got so frustrated a little while ago that he had the worst zoomies I've ever seen. Thanks everyone for your concern and well wishes. Here's hoping for a better day tomorrow.

[Anna and Achilles]

Feel better soon!!

[Michele, Biscuit & Mo]

So sorry to hear about Guinness! I know that sometimes it feels like it never ends... and yes, thank God for insurance! Paws crossed for Guinness and tell Murphy not to worry!

OH, Guinness please get better...our paws are crossed.

[BG and Gavin]

That just sucks Jane. Hang in there, I am sure your run of bad luck will be over soon. Keeping a good thought...
