Sunday bright and beautiful

[Kazz]

Morning all been up since about 7ish eventually the fireworks filtered out and Bella was able to sleep. Have a plan for Bella tonight apart form the thunder shirt I buy today etc we are starting in the bedroom.
But she is back to normal fine this morning been out and done what she needs to do. Planning a few more walks and then footie in the back garden.
So will be chatting away for a while I think.....so see you all later if anyone is here.

The weather here is nice bright and cold but nice. May pop into the front garden now I am back home.

Angie hope Dora is okay......
Shelley - what are your plans for today?
Pamela - How is Barneys leg? Can you get support bandages for dogs as you can with people and horses I wonder?
P.P It was a brief visit to Wales hope the girls were okay with the fireworks and you get your DIY done. Weird I fixed the bathroom door handle yesterday morning before leaving.

Morning Kazz - I couldn't believe you had such bad luck with the cottage, poor Bella, after all your effort to get her out of harm's way. I hope all the plans you now put into action go well and she can be kept calm. I am dreading Tuesday as our local pub is having a big bonfire party. Monty gets scared and we have no idea how Dora will react. So far, she doesn't seem to care about thunder etc.

Thanks all for your good wishes for Dora - so far, so good. She seems fine in herself, her gums have stayed a good colour (haven't checked them yet this morning) and she has not shown any lethargy. We are still giving her the charcoal.

Bright and chilly here - it's agility day and I think we will take Dora for her training and see how she goes. At least it's not far away. We missed a great dog show yesterday evidently.

Pamela - sorry, I'm catching the end of this .... what's wrong with Barney's leg???

Shelley, I wonder if you are coming home today??? If so, have a safe journey.

PP - hope your girls continue to take things calmly and that you managed to sort out your DIY.

Have a good day folks.

Good morning all, thankfully it's dry this morning. The fireworks didn't take off so the girls didn't hear a thing they seemed very calm, Pandora slept and Pearla sat in the window. I think Pearla was a bit disappointed there was nothing to watch, a very dark and damp night saw to that.

Took the opportunity to sweep up the fallen leaves, a soggy task but necessary, don't want any slips and falls on the wet mulch.

As for my DIY, thank goodness for dad and his drill what should have been a 10 minute job took an hour! I really haven't a clue when it comes to this kind of thing

Kazz, I hope the thundershirt helps Bella. First time I've heard of such things so let us know how you get on.
Angie I must have missed the bit about Dora and charcoal, why does she need this?
Pamela Is Barney on meds for his knee, my Bronnie used to take Metacam, but that was for arthritis, don't know if that's appropriate.
Welcome home Shelley hope you didn't get storm-washed.

we took him to the vet last month because he wouldn't put weight on it that night or the next morning. They said it was probably a nail bed infection. When we have him out, he can start limping but 5mins later and he is fine. Seems to come and go

No longer in Wales Shelley.

Thundershirt brought and also this http://www.petsathome.com/shop/homeo...-animals-26856

Hope it has a little effect but first 10 drops administered about 1.30pm it is quite a nice day here apart from odd showers so I think we will have fireworks tonight too. I am looking at like this yesterday tonight tomorrow and then Tuesday.
Well that's it really see how we go. Nothing I can stop just starting to get a handle on her and by next year will be sorted, so I can help her cope easier I hope.

Right thunder coat is being worn she is asleep mind you she was asleep before I put it on and had to wake her up to fit it.
Just been for our last outside walk and all home now roast pork cooked and resting and about 10 minutes to dinner roast pots, cauli, beans, mashed spuds, gravy, cheese sauce, stuffing.

Yummy.

Here's hoping the shirt etc helps.took ours for some offlead beach excercise,they had a good run until Kwame became obsessed with chasing flying oyster catchers.the danger was he would run near the road and then see something else to chase.
