Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
Hey Sus!! Yes, he is very lucky... the knob is still attached it is just wonky and won't work! He does not seem to have any after effects at all. Honestly that dog needs to be wrapped in cotton wool for his own safety lately!!
YAY Friday, my favourite day of the week!! Tomorrow we are doing a walk around a new park with a friend, then off to visit his friend Cooper again. Cooper's Mum is a twin and the other one died two years ago on Sunday so we are going to take her some flowers and hang out tomorrow afternoon and the dogs can all play which always cheers her up!
What you up to this weekend? Anything fun planned?
Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
Whoo hoooo, weekend is here!!! wineries and walks in the park and play dates. Sounds wonderful! I hope you have lovely weather, all weekend long.
Wrapped in cotton! Ha! Now there is an idea! The way Flynn likes his blankets, he'd probably snooze his days away in the cocoon. :)
30 more mintues and then my weekend starts!!! whoo hoooo!!!! I forgot what I even wanted to run up to the storm for today..hmm..might have been for iced coffee now I think about it.
The winery restaurant sound delish! Now I'm not even interested in a roast for dinner. pffft
hugs

Hi Trish,
Here I am again playing catch up with everyone's news. So glad to read that no terrible harm was done when you had to slam on the brakes for the oblivious kid bike rider!
Now that we're not driving out to my mothers much anymore Trixie is hardly ever in a car, but we usually just hold her which I know is just plain dangerous. I got this car seat a few years ago and she ended up loving it...we were shocked, but it was junk and it kind of kept falling apart...so I got what I thought was a better one...safer and more comfortable...and what do you think??? Trixie hated it, would not stay in it and would get car sick too!! Then I couldn't get a hold of another junky one!!
Anyway glad to read that Flynn is doing well. Trixie is also on lowfat everything, like Jasper. Finally they are making more lowfat treats. Trixie is not picky about food and will eat anything...she loves chewy treats but I can't find many that are low fat enough for her.
I like Humans of NY too...fun stories. Check out The Dogist on FB...they put up the best dog photos ever!! Hope you have a nice weekend! :D

Hi girls, yes the weather is great today here too, lovely sunshine and no wind. So all looking good for the walk/play date this arvo.
Barbara, I just signed up for "The Dogist" :D Ohhhh going to be so excited when Trixie shows up on there, as she surely will!! How could they not want to take a photo of our gorgeous girl! Imagine looking after that dog with the dreads :eek::eek: funny looking thing!
I think I might look into car seats too, the seat belt we have is not very comfortable for him. He keeps trying to lean away out of it. He has never been a good car traveller. He sits on the back seat, never wants to get in the front other than standing on that centre console with his back legs on the back seat. Now I have seen what a missile he turns into, that has to stop.
Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
Koko likes to ride that way too. He cant do it in the Honda as the console is further away and one time he fell too, bumping his chin really bad. I have tethers that slip into the seat belts and then attach to his harness. I have not used them since Zoe got sick. I used to tether both of them and they would get ticked off and try to wrestle with their seat belts on:rolleyes:
What fun for Dad and you to see All Blacks play live. That will be a cool event. I bet your Dad cant wait.
Barbara, I laughed so hard that Trixie liked the junky car seat. Figures!!!

Hi Trish,
Just checking in here real quick to see how you and Flynn are doing. How was the walk and play date? Hope you guys are having a good weekend. Maybe we can do some catching up a bit later. :) xo
Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
Hello you
How was the play date, hope Flynn behaved and didn't pee on little Cooper :D
At work we use bubble wrap for packaging it come in about 3 ft thick large rolls, would you like me to ship you some to wrap the boy in :D
I used a seat belt thing with Woody. I can't remember the name but one end clipped into the seat belt and other clipped to his collar. It meant he could stand/sit/lye but short enough he could fall off the back seat. He hated the proper doggy ones.
Hope you enjoy what's left of the weekend :D

Morning!!
Yep he had a fine time yesterday, first the walk in the park with Meg the Scottie Dog. He rolled in duck +/- swan poop and had green stripes all down him. Immediately after that walk we were calling in to see some our other friend with Cooper. Luckily Jacquie had wet wipes in her car so I wiped him down as best as I could. But he still was a bit whiffy! I was going to leave him in the car at my friends but she insisted he come in, so I ushered him straight through the house and out into her garden where they all played.
He got a nice shower once he got home for his troubles!!
That sounds like the seat belt attachment I have for him. I am putting a harness on as well so if he does get flung forward the pressure won't be on his neck.
Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
Hee Hee Flynn sure is a grubby little dog, these terriers do like to roll in some yucky stuff. Glad he had fun though !
Harness is a good idea, Woody always wore a harness a purple fleece made to measure one cost me a pretty penny, but worth it, as he could be a puller on the lead and this helped stop that. :D

LOVED< LOVED< LOVED the utube clip.
The Haka (is that right) looks like a serious dance when the ALL Blacks do it.
Ok, I'm hooked.:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
