My thought are with you, Patti! Mindy

My prayers are with you, Tonya! Mindy

I'm sorry you lost your baby. I'm glad I was part of helping you heal by helping you get Elphie. She sure is beautiful. I'm sure in a way, part of that beauty comes from Crooke. Mindy

How's he doing this morning? Mindy

Your pup is in my thoughts! Mindy

I am still in shock. He was fine this morning when I let him out. Within 5 minutes I heard a sharp cry. WHen I went to check on him, he was gone! I am not sure what happen. The vet thinks he had a heart attack. He would have been 4 July 31st. I can't stop crying, but want to be strong for my children. I'll write more whne I can see the screen better. Please pray for us!!! Heartbroken in Indiana Mindy

My thoughts and prayers go out to you during this terrible time. You and your husband have done such a good job helping her be comfortable. Mindy

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family! Mindy

We have had Ike since he was 4 months old. He has hair loss on his behind, stomach, chest, and under his chin. He was beginning to lose the hair around his ears. He has always had somewhat of a bald butt, but the additional hair loss was noticed within the last year. I am not sure if a full panel was done with his brother, but he scored in the same range as Ike. We go back in two weeks for a blood check and if the weight loss continue it will be sooner. Burpdog- where did you find this information? Thanks for all the information. Mindy

He just had a blood test. They checked his T3 and T4. One was in normal range and one was .4 with normal being between 1-4. He will be 4 on July 31st. We got his brother back as a return and they found he had thyroid problems. So we got to thinking that maybe with his hair loss maybe he had a thyroid problem also. Thanks, Mindy

The vet put my youngest greyhound on .8 mg of Thyroxine twice a day for two weeks and now once a day. I have noticed that his hair is growing back, but I am also noticing some weight loss. Is this common? Ike was a skinny boy to begin with and now his ribs are more pronounced. Should I be concerned or am I overreacting? Thanks for your suggestions! Mindy

Any news?

Glad to hear she is feeling better. I hope she continues to to feel better. Mindy

He is a very sweet boy. He is 3 1/2, but looks older. He has snapped at two of our dogs when they tried sniffing him this morning. We have a muzzle on for a while to let him get used to being here. He seems to like it here. He and my daughter laid on the floor and took a nap. He follows us around and loves hugs. He loves attention. He is a lot like Ike, his brother. Hopefully, he will learn to like it here. He is working on my husband with that greyhound magic. He laid his head on DH's shoulder on the way home from our president's house. I have a picture on my cell phone. I will try to downlod and post. Thanks for your suggestions and concerns. Mindy

The meds were not helping and the vet said to stop them and try the other med. He just came to my house today. I feel so sorry for him. Where can I get the bag balm? By the way, we got burpdogs from my secret saanta and my dogs love them! Mindy
