Hey everyone!

Good news tonight, no SCC in mouth!! Woooo hoooooo :D:D:D

Vet away but he txt me to say it was non specific ulcerative glossitis, probably trauma induced originally and just not healing.

So goodness knows what caused that, probably some manky old fish head he chomped up the beach. Don't know why it is non healing, maybe it got infected or something?? But will talk further with vet when he is back from trip.

But Flynnikin if you have caused this by eating something nasty that cut your mouth then got infected and delayed healing you can pay for the GA (btw thats general anaesthetic Vicki), dental, xrays, gastroscopy, excisional biopsy, histology, antibiotics, pain killers and hospital day stay which I cannot imagine is going to be cheap so its coming out of your toy allowance young man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They did not give me the bill the other day as they just wanted him to get home and get comfortable. So thats going to be a little nasty surprise soon :eek::eek::eek: Oh well, I would pay anything for my little Flynn boy especially when it involves getting good news! :D:D:D

Phew what a relief, thanks so much for all your good wishes everyone, they worked again!!!! Mel, you must hold some power up there with the pet gods!! :D:D xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (maybe Tia and Fella put a good word in for Flynn :D:D)

Oh Trish, that is fantastic news!!!! Yay Flynn!!!!! Whew, what a relief. :) That little guy was on my mind all day, so happy to get this good news during Jasper's pit stop. But I must admit that I am a little worried that the poor boy will never see a new toy again if the vet bill comes out of his allowance, Lol. :D :rolleyes: :D How is his tummy doing? Hope that is still going ok.

Just saw a late night preview for the Stanley Cup Finals, game 1 is tomorrow night, so I will be glued to the tube during prime time. Hope I can get back to sleep after seeing that! So excited!!

Big hugs Trish, and lots of smooches for Flynn. Tell him his family up North is so happy with his results. That is the best news ever. :D :D

Tina and Jasper

Isn't it the best news! I am so happy tonight, he just took his two newest toys up on the couch and is have a good old rip up with fluff flying every which way! I just told him he better ration them!!! :p

His tummy is really good, I was getting a little worried about that but I think he was hesitant because of the rain and then first thing this morning he did a huge totally formed normal one. So that's a relief, I am going to keep him on his current grain free venison bicuits and venison mince until we go for his checkup next week and hopefully his mouth will be all healed and we might look at restarting the hydrolysed food again for the trial.

Tell Jasper and Shelby they did a good job keeping their stubby's crossed!! :D:D How they doing? Is testing coming up for Jasper?

Hmmm I am not even sure what the Stanley Cup is? Hockey? I will have to google :D Go Tina's team though :D:D:D

I am so pleased for you. That's the best news. The stress of the last few days must have been intense so it's so good that's the end of it.

Your vets are so great, he actually seems like he cares about Flynn the fact they let you leave without paying is surprising! Flynn clearly doesn't appreciate he is on toy rationing if he's ripping up two tonight :D

It's early here so going back to bed for a snooze before the madness starts

Have a great evening

Thanks Mel, back to bed for a snooze sounds like a good idea to me! You are up early!

I think I am very lucky with our vet, he is great and really does care for Flynn he is so kind to him as are all staff in the practice. He also seems to be one of those that knows that dealing with a much loved pet also involves dealing with the owner and I am pretty sure I am high maintenance :eek: but he takes all my preciousness in his stride and what I really really like is that if he does not know something he is more than happy to tell me that and he then goes and researches it and/or consults with IMS and gets back to me.... quickly. Bottom line is I trust him and he knows what I am like with needing a good plan and works with me on that. I wish everyone here could have someone like Mike in their corner. I will bake them a cake when we go for our checkup next week (plus pay the bill!)!

Yes, I am still smiling :D:D:D:D

Now Flynny, go easy on those toys, it might be a while before you see any new ones!! Lol. Happy he is feeling good and wreaking havoc on his toys! I love it when Jasper and Shelby get all radical and shake them like mad. Such ferocious little pups. So funny.

Yes, the Stanley Cup is the Hockey finals. I am torn this year because I love both teams that made it to the finals. So I guess I will just be able to watch for the sheer enjoyment of the game rather than stressing over who I want to win. Well, that's what I say now at least. :D Football (American football) and hockey are my favorites, so the Stanley Cup Finals are quite exciting!! :cool:

Jasper and Shelby are doing pretty well. I need to update Jasper's thread, I saw your post there. Thanks for checking in on us!

He is not scheduled for any testing currently. He had a couple of weeks where he seemed to be not feeling so well, just low energy, not wanting to play, lethargic. It was worrisome. We upped his dexamethasone to a daily dose for about a week and a half. Not sure that really made a big difference. At any rate, he seems to have snapped out of it now for the most part, so I am grateful. Dex back down to every other day, and we are watching him. He is scheduled for his next Percorten injection on 6/18.

Well, better get back to bed for sure this time, the alarm will be going off before I know it. Again, so pleased with Flynn's results. Have a good night Trish!

Tina and Jasper

Awww glad he is doing good Tina, wonder if his next UPC is going to be the same as Flynn's again, that was hsyterical!!

Yep back to bed for you, I am off out as just ordered takeout Thai to celebrate, so I'm going to pick it up.. wish they did delivery, gawd I am lazy :D:D

Glad you had some good news today Trish.
