In my experience Border Collies will bounce back from just about anything. If you feel up to it yourself, and the day isn't too bad, I'm sure she'd appreciate a long walk in the woods instead of being stuck in the crate all the time. Give her a hug from me. Oh, we've gone on a lot of walks today. I just kept her in the crate when she was inside... I'm not anymore, and keeping my fingers crossed. She seems to have to go about every hour or so now. 2 4

Site Administrator Popular Post Valkyrie Posted May 15, 2020 Site Administrator Popular Post Posted May 15, 2020 I got sad news from a good friend of mine today. Her foxhound passed away suddenly of a heart attack a few days ago On a brighter note... I got my stimulus check today, along with my unemployment debit card. So I finally have some funds coming in, even if it wasn't everything I'm owed. I signed up for direct deposit on the website, but at least I have something. I can withdraw the cash and deposit it into my checking account. 3 1 3

Caz Pedroso Posted May 15, 2020 Posted May 15, 2020 7 hours ago, Headstall said: So, here was my night... First, a pile of poop at the back door at 9pm. No, I didn't do it. I cleaned it up and wondered why Cookie did it. I put her in her crate, and later, at 11pm, she had diarrhea... took the tray outside and hosed it off and scrubbed it. I repeated that at 2am, 4am, and 7am. Gave her a bath at 11am and she jumped out of the tub and ran around the house at top speed. Of course she landed on my bed, so the bedding is in the washer now. I put her back in the tub and finished. I used four towels to wipe up all the water and dry her. Sigh. She seems okay... smells like Ivory soap... lots of energy and she ate half her breakfast. I'm exhausted. I had to check the readit reaction, as I was sure whether to check dad because Cookie was unwell, Wow because of how many times you had to get up with her, Heart to send love to her to get better, or finally Laugh at her getting on your bed all wet. So a readit it was and all of the above too 😁 1 4
Caz Pedroso Posted May 15, 2020 Posted May 15, 2020 5 hours ago, Headstall said: My vet said it had to run its course, and was likely from something she ate outside. Cookie let me know she wanted to go again so I let her out and she went. I'm hoping that's the last of it. Hope you both get some rest 3 2

Popular Post Headstall Posted May 16, 2020 Popular Post Posted May 16, 2020 The poop patrol continues. Talked to my vet again and she says if she's not better by Monday, to call and she will give her an antibiotic. Says it's likely large bowel issue. Prescribed pumpkin for her, and my daughter has just delivered it for me... gotta go... 1 1 1 4

You said she was still drinking so dehydration shouldn’t be an issue. Not fun. 4 1
