    Dweebis Kaneebis

    in Remembrance

    Posted

    I was speechless after reading what happened to Dweebis. It's just heart-breaking. I am so, so sorry. :grouphug:f_white

    Glad you found him and were able to say good-bye, and that the last thing he felt was your love.

     

    Run free Dweebis, sweet boy... :gh_run2

    I wasn't on GT a year ago, but still wanted to send you a :bighug ... thank you for posting the pictures, he was an amazingly beautiful boy. When I lost Rufus years ago I thought would never have another dog - but here I am with Merlin now, and thinking of adopting another one soon... the truth is, they are such a special part of our lives, not even death can take them away from us. They live in our hearts forever. :gh_runner

    OMG I only just read this whole thread - all 14 pages of it, how the hell did I miss it?! I was so shocked to see Brody's initial pictures, it's nothing short of heart-breaking, and I kept anxiously reading post after post looking for updates... he is doing so much better - thanks for posting all the updates and pictures! Can't get the lovely picture of his gorgeous smile as he lays on the grass in the sun out of my head.... good luck Brody... beautiful boy :kiss2 :kiss2 :inlove

     

    Kudos to you Kelly, you're such a good person. Brody's so lucky to have you taking care of him.

    Oh! Happy Tail

    Oh geez. Looks like he may well need stitches. The same happened to our grey Merlin once - except it was our fault. My husband accidentally closed the back window (stupid electric windows! I hate them) on the tip of his tail... he squealed and there was blood EVERYWHERE... just as you described. We were mortified and took him to the emergency animal hospital because we realized it was not going to heal itself anytime soon. He needed several stitches and had to be put under. We have never felt so bad and guilty in our lives, as when we saw him hobbling out of the operating theater, all "drunk" from the anaesthetic, poor baby... :sad1 we were newbie grey-parents at the time... Now we are always super careful in the car and when opening and closing doors.

     

    Good luck! Hope his tail heals soon!

    Urgh! Licking And Sratching Constantly!

    Carolyn - glad you figured it out. My Merlin has been chewing and scratching for two weeks and we can't figure out what it is. We found a flea on him about two weeks ago, and washed everything and did a complete body search and found NOTHING. We put Frontline on him every 4 weeks, just applied some more. I don't think it works that well, I have a friend who suggested Buck Mountain's Herbal Gold powder and we're going to try that too. Has anyone else used this? Not sure what to do about the itching though. Could it be just that the humidity levels have gone down considerably of late? Merlin has dry, itchy & flaky skin to start off with, and an allergy to fleas.

     

    Any suggestions would be gratefully received.. :unsure
