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

Oh yeah, the curse is broken haha Tracy!! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I have just slept the sleep on one given good news, so must have Flynny as never heard a peep out of him. We both sure needed that!!

Addy, think you are quite right. He did eat that rotten fish up the beach that really upset him 3 weeks back. Pain, vomiting, diarrhea... trip to vet, stormogyl and poops not quite right ever since. So, as much as I hate to do it to him it will be leash walks only up there as he is not be trusted. I have another park I can take him too and let him have a run there.

If anyone knows a good renal, liver, IBD, anti cancer diet please let me know :D:D as it looks like we need to change it up a bit. A question for IMS next week when we catch up, hopefully they have access to a pet nutritionist up there.

Thanks for all the well wishes.... lots of happiness here for all Flynny's Aunties and friends!! xxxx

Aww, sleep deep dear friend and relax:):):):):):)

They want $150 for rugby All Blacks jersey???:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: zowie!!!!!!!

If you and Sharlene are doing a road trip you may just have some extra time. They are bringing city water to our street to the tune of $20,000 per house and roads will be torn up for 4 months.:eek::eek::mad:

Not sure what we will or can do now:(:(:(:(

Enjoy what is left of your weekend!!!

Wowzer, 150 bucks... bugger that! :D:D I heard they were expensive, probably Adidas getting their cut!! Just wave our black flag like I do!!

Now if you are a true All Blacks fan you will be getting up with me at 3am to watch the game live vs England in the morning :D:D Well it won't be 3am for you... it will be 8am your time, much more sociable lol xx

Love the pic with the cow!!! Hope you all are doing ok!

hi Trish...just catching up on posts...I see I have missed a whole lot here with Flynn giving a bit of a scare! Glad to have gotten to the good news post!! You are so right, it would not be fair at all for Flynn to have anything serious to deal with. He has already done it all, and with such success too, but no more!! It does sound like the dead fish had stirred up some major gastric upset...that makes sense! These pups will really eat anything they find that smells, won't they??
Hoping you have a good weekend...also hoping Flynn is feeling good. I'm going to continue reading posts...seems a lot is going on with everyone! :)

Hi Barbara

So lovely to see you!! Yes, Flynn does like to keep us on our toes. But hopefully all good for him, just took him for a run in the school next door and boy it was good to see him running like the wind again!! Have not seen him that energetic in a few weeks so good he getting his mojo back :)

Jas, thx for popping in.. that pic was taken a year ago the day before he had a liver resection removing a big tumour!! Pretty cute, everyone thought I should buy him a cow for Christmas but could not find him one!! My Mum thought that Flynn was just checking for any crumbs around the cows mouth or deciding if he like his beef medium rare :D:D

Hi Trish,

Well, looks like I just missed you by a bit, darn. I was so happy to read about the biopsy results. What a huge relief. No histology report yet I am guessing? Sounds like the little man is feeling much better now too. I didn't know that he had eaten more rotten fish off the beach just a few weeks ago. :eek: That little guy! It is so disgusting the things they will eat. A couple of months ago, Jasper was hovering and acting way too interested and looked like he was pawing and licking at something near the back fence. I raced back there and caught him just as he was trying to pick up a slimy decomposing frog. :eek: :eek: I was yelling "drop it!!". I'm sure I looked like a crazy person. Ewwwwwwwww, so nasty. I went and got a shovel and threw it into the field over the back fence, and I had the willies. Total ick! I wanted to wash his mouth out with soap! I did wash his face and paws. :p :rolleyes:

Yep, looks like you broke the November curse, and we broke the September curse, love it!! Count me in for the road trip, I think I am about a days drive or so from Addy, and I love NYC. Haven't been for ages. Hey, I saw that the All Blacks were on early this morning, but I don't get the sports channel that the game was on. I did see that they won the game, boy that score sure was a lot closer than the USA game! :o

Well, better go find Jasper's latest lab results and notes to get an update together for him. I am way overdue. Will get that posted in the morning. Jasper and Shelby are both sound asleep and snoring on the couch. Think it's time for bed for me too. Hope to catch up with you soon. xo

Hey Tina

I am still here, just been outside watering the garden. Love these Spring evenings when it is not too hot... Flynny pottering alongside me.

YAY for Jasper and Flynn breaking their curse months this year... although I should not be too premature as November is not over yet :p:D

OMG a decomposing frog.... gawd I have done that "DROP IT" yell but that just makes him gobble it faster and pick it up and run away from his harridan mother that obviously has no taste where these doggy delicacies are concerned.

I have just had 5 days off, so getting prepped for work in the morning :mad:;) Hopefully I will be emailed a copy of the histology tomorrow. I have a few questions to ask the IMS so hopefully can do that over the phone or email this week.

I will be looking out for the Jasper update with interest Tina, love to hear of him playing out in the yard like that... frogs included haha ... I have had to scoop up the odd hedgehog and toss it over the back fence too... he won't leave them alone if he finds one even when he gets spiked in the nose and mouth... stooopid terriers :D xxx

Hey, see your green light! I was just outside with everyone for the last potty break, and then I give Jasper his Denamarin now. Yes, I know November isn't over yet, just thinking positive. :) But I totally understand, I didn't feel good until September was completely over for us, so I can relate.

Well, Jasper is never off leash anywhere open anymore, and in the yard I can get to him pretty quick. Yes, I know that grab and run tactic, and then gobble and swallow before I can get there. That is maddening when they do that! Then they look at you with that look like they are so much smarter than you, I hate that!

Gosh, glad we don't have hedgehogs here or he would certainly be after those also. Lol, stoopid terriers is right! :D He has murdered a few rabbits in his day, and also has picked off a few birds as they were taking off in flight. He was quite dastardly about that in his younger years. It is so hard for me to believe that he did those things because he is so sweet. He still tries to stalk birds and rabbits if he gets a chance, he just isn't as fast as before. Definitely a terrier thing.

Sorry about having to go back to work, but glad you had 5 days off. I don't know when I am going to be able to take some time off, we are so busy all the time. :(

Plan to post an update on my little man in the morning. His last report was mostly pretty good, but there were some labs that weren't that wonderful. xo

Haha that made me laugh... they sound very similar our boys, Flynn has not caught a rabbit but he did get a chicken once, little murderers and he has snapped the odd bird out the air and of course if Elle the cat brings one in he thinks she has brought him a present and takes it off her!! :eek::eek:

I did take him off leash in the school as there are not usually dead things in there. I do like him to have a good run to exercise, I think it helps him and good to keep him fit as possible while we still can.

His creatinine had gone up in the last labs, still only mid range normal. But it had always been low, so think I will give him another few weeks of hopefully being good and redo the UPC and bloods. I am also going to ask the IMS about maybe increasing his benzapril to see if we can drive that UPC even lower. Although he was happy with those results. But I really do not want to see that Creatinine trending upwards.
