Benny update
Re: Benny updateI love the top picture of Benny where he looks very Christmassy. I hope your boy now goes from strength to strength after the latest set back. Cuddles to you both

Re: Benny updateOh bless him, he looks like such a lovely boy
So glad he's feeling a little better now Lucy x

Re: Benny updateThank you all, we've had a gentle short lead walk, I'm bathing his wounds twice a day with saline and he's taking his meds like a good boy. Been putting an ice pack wrapped in a towel on his leg too.
He's eating really well too Forgot to say earlier, vet said it was where they went in and stabilised Benny's joint with for want of a better word nuts and bolts and screws, that's where the reaction happened. If anyone's interested, here's what Benny's had done - a tibial plateau levelling osteotomy, bless him http://vetspecialists.co.uk/factsheets/Orthopaedics/Tibial_plateau_levelling.html Bev x

Re: Benny updateReally glad to hear Benny do ok after his setback. Take care Bev
Re: Benny updateSorry to hear of Benny's set back, but well done you for spotting it quickly and getting the correct medication/treatment, bless him.
Just love the look in his eyes in the first picture. They say a picture paints a thousand words and that one sure does. LOL Had a look at that link, looks quite an intricate op, but the prognosis looks excellent.
Re: Benny updateGlad Benny is feeling better again Bev, its a good job you and Roman are on the ball
Gorgeous photos of your beautiful boy as always he really is a lovely boy, and deserves his tasty sausages Lindaxx And then there was one, Again!!!!

Re: Benny updateThank you all
Again today he's more perkier, sleep, nutrition combined with his meds are working their magic I was so worried about him last week, what with it being the bone and everything, but onwards and upwards now Love all the new Christmas smilies Bev x

Re: Benny updateHey everyone, just thought I'd post another little update.
Our boy is doing really well, he's pretty much back to normal although he's not allowed to do normal Benny things and has to keep calm for another few good weeks yet. He's so good though, you tell him "Benny no" and he listens. He's eating and drinking normally and really seems to like his crate/room. He doesn't have to be in there whilst we're with him, but we leave the door open and he takes himself in there for a snooze We're back to see our vet tomorrow for another check up, I'm pretty confident the infection has been zapped. Have also booked him in for a shampoo and set afterwards as a little treat Here's our lovely boy Bev x
