  1. Grasp snoot. Tilt head back. Open mouth. Stuff pill waaaaaaay down throat. Close mouth, stroke throat till pupper swallows, tell pupper he's a good boy, give spoonful of ice cream.

     

    Hugs and luck.

     

     

    Yep...that's the best way. It's hard having to give them the meds but they have to have them. :bighug

     

    thank you all so much for the suggestions. I knew you all would have the right answers. Scooter is soooo food motivated it freaked me a litte. Please continue to send white light for my boy. I hate osteo.

     

     

    My Scooter was the same way. :bighug

  2. I feel your pain. :cry1

     

     

    I hope when it is time for Scooter to make that journey that your Scooter will be there to greet him. My Scooter HATES to be alone. Oh and he really loves girls so maybe a lot of girls will be there too. I followed your journey with Scooter. It is so heartbreaking.

     

     

    Pam, when the times comes I know my Scooter will be there to meet yours. Thank you for your kind words, I would have never made it through losing Scooter had it not been for the love and support I have received in the Greyhound community. Well, to be honest I am still working through it, I suspect I will be doing that for a long while.

     

    My thoughts and prayers are with you. Take advantage of everyday you have left. Do everything and anything his heart desires. And when the time comes, be strong for him. My heart breaks for you right now.....I am so very sorry.

    Well, Chase seems like he's not in pain anymore as he only pants now when he has to go potty (prednisone!). I also did one of the neurological tests on him that the vet did (putting his back feet on his knuckles and seeing if he rights himself... it's a reflex and he wasn't doing it before which told the vet his leg wasn't communicating with his brain properly).... and he righted the leg! :yay:

     

    You know when dogs get wet or something and they start to shake at their head and it travels down their body and ends up going through their tail? Well, since Chase has been hurt, he hasn't been able to get it past his neck. Yesterday at noon he was able to wiggle his body and his tail just a bit. Just this morning when I brought him in from doing our walk in the backyard, he did it again and did a full shake... it was a VERY gentle shake, but he did it! :yay:

     

    Thanks for the prayers... they seem to be working!

     

     

    That's wonderful news! :clap

  5. I've been out of town, just getting back today and checking in here for Darcy results. *sigh* I'm sorry Bev. :bighug I do hope your vet and the treatments will allow your family and Darcy to have more time together. We'll continue good thoughts and prayers for her. :hope
