Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy- Good Bye Flynny We will miss you

Hi my lovelies!

Flynn spent the day at the vets yesterday for his checkup: BP/UPC/bloods etc. I don't have results yet as his vet had to leave before I got there after work to collect him, but he has scheduled us a 45 min appointment this afternoon as he wants to have a discussion about that article I posted on proteinuria and decide what we should do with Flynny taking his latest results into account.

He has been great lately, although a mucousy covering on his poop last night, but that could be due to the stress of spending day in a pen at the vets, poor boy!! I took his lunch and blanket to the vets so he would be as comfy as possible! Bit quiet this morning but it is rainy and he missed his walk yesterday and he doesn't like that :p

AND in further good news, today is the last day of winter here!! HOORAY!!! Soon be on daylight savings again and not so dark in the evenings and I can get back to taking him for a little walk at night after work. But he is lucky he never usually misses a walk as his Grandad takes him daily, but he likes two better :D... he is one lucky boy! xxxx

Hope that yesterdays results come back good and then it will be so much less of a worry for todays meeting.

It seems so strange to hear you say the end of winter. It feels like you didn't even have a winter. LOL Still nice days and walking on the beach, that is my kind of winter for sure!
We were watching one of the national geographic programs the other night on tv and it was about the tectonic plates, and the movement in New Zealand. Truly some beautiful landscapes. We agreed it's on our bucket list to go to. Maybe one day when we have more time. LOL With that long of a flight, I definitely want to be able to spend some time on the ground before having to head back. :)

Enjoy the weekend!

HI Sharlene~! It gets cold alright, I had to put a coat on yesterday :D:D:D:eek:

It is funny now when I hear things on the news and it relate it to people on here... this week there were news and footage from Canada as our young 16yo golfer girl won the Woman's Canadian Open and I thought of you!! Then the US Open tennis was on from New York, I looked to see what the weather was like to see if Trixie would be having her walk in Central Park :D

Isn't it funny how we relate things now to the people and dogs we know from the forum?! At the specialist yesterday I kept seeing forum dogs in all the different dog pictures and dogs that were in the waiting area. I'd say there is a scoop or there is a trixie. Saw a Tipper and a Flynn in the wall pictures too! LOL

Oh my a coat! That just won't do at all! Course it is good that the coat doesn't have to be a Down coat, boot length and rated to -30C. Uggs are our friends too, when it comes to warm comfy boots. (and I just found a pair in a runner style, nice fur inside, you know I had to grab them up. ROFL!

Okay, I'm so very procrastinating, sitting here at the computer and rubbing my toes on molly's back. LOL

hugs,
Sharlene and Molly Muffin

Me too, except for the part about rubbing my Flynn's back... he is snuggled on the couch! I have a hair appointment in an hour and a half so that is the plan for today, then visit the vet and a quiet one tonight! YAY after such a busy week I am looking forward to relaxing! Maybe a curry! Ohhhh nooooooooooo not ugg boots, I think they were invented in NZ.... not sure though but they are most definitely not a fashion statement in this neck of the woods but I guess at -30 I would be tempted to wear them :D:D:D

LOL- Kate loves the Ugg boots. Funny, I snagged a pair of Coach tennis shoes on sale, super, dirt cheap, like $22 and I bought them to wear to walk the dogs because my old tennis shoes have holes in the sides and winter will be here soon. LOL Kate had a heart attack I was going to wear Coach tennis shoes to walk the dogs so she begged me for them, of course I gave them to here since they seemed more important to her than to me, I just wanted shoes to walk the dogs:D:D Of course now she has her fashion statement tennis shoes and I still have tennis shoes with holes in them:rolleyes:

Let us know what happens at the vets I am so wanting to hear.

Happy weekend!!!!

Hehehe, yep, Uggs are definitely "in" here, or anything that resembles them, in the winter at least. Toasty toes, works for me. LOL
Oh yea, I know the coach tennis shoes you mean, we call tennis shoes, runners here in Canada. :) I have a couple pair too. No way I'd pay full price either but if you go to like a Ross in the states or Marshals, you can usually find stuff like that at a very good discount. Love them, coach is one of the ones that actually fit my feet well, so I tend to go for them if I find them at a decent price.
I have the coach boots for winter too, but they have these little pom poms on them that drive me up the wall. My daughter was horrified that I wanted to cut them off! hahahaha
I think that is so funny that Kate ended up with the shoes. So, what did you find for walking the dogs now??
Ahh, a hair cut, vet chat and a curry. Sounds good to me too.
I'm thinking of making nachos and watching a movie or two tonight. We're thinking about watching Hunger Games. I haven't seen it yet and hubby would like to see it.

Have a good evening all
Sharlene and Molly Muffin

I'm still wearing my old pair with holes in them:p:p Kids, and I cant say no to her when she bats those brown eyes at me;)
Ahhhhh friday night, long weekend, day in the pool, doesnt get any better than this unless hubby decides to fire up the grill.

Trish, you are looking forward to daylight saving time and I am dreading it being dark when I get home from work in a few months. Last night it was dark out and it wasnt even eight pm:eek::eek::eek:

At least Zoe has been sleeping in lately. Nice change of pace from those 4:30 am mornings a while back:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolle yes:

Oh poor Flynn..another day at the vet and then a distressed tummy. Those mucous poops...ugh..hate when that happens. Sounds like a few forum dogs had some bad poops this week like we did.
You're so lucky to have that chat time with your vet, my guy is nice but I never get the feeling that there's any time for more than a few moments of questions.
Trish we are at opposite ends for sure...you'll stay lighter later, we are already getting darker earlier. :(

My kids are always rolling their eyes at me...but never so badly as when I put on the dreaded fanny pack!! HAAAAAA. Something I never thought I would wear!! But hey- Trixie comes first..I need things for her when we head out to the park. In the cool weather I have jacket pockets so I don't use it but in the summer I don't have enough pockets for her treats, bags, small water dish etc...
I have super old beat up UGG boots for the fall and I am finally at a stage in my life that I don't care what I look like when I am doing the park thing with Trixie. I mean my hair is neat :D but clothes, shoes, whatever works and is comfortable. Not all is lost...if I need to look decent I definitely will do my best, but walking the dog...it's all about staying comfortable in the weather.

Sharlene..I do the exact same thing in the park when I see different dogs!! I see one that looks like your photo of Molly, or one that resembles Keesh...and today I saw a Tipper look alike!! So funny I think the forum pups are often on my mind.

Looking forward to good results from Flynn's tests today! :p

Addy,
I have the black signature Coach sneaker and wear them for most of the year :)
