good news

Hi too all hope your all well.
For all of you that saw my post yesterday about Ava, being spayed plus the stressful phone call i had about demodectic mange she had a nettle rash on her back legs but the vet was adamant it was demodectic mange, which really stressed me out due too a very bad experience with it in a neighbours dog.
Well the good news is Ava,s operation went very well she had abit of a rough night with pain and just generally feeling very sorry for herself so lots of spoiling and one silly mum falling asleep on the floor next too her bed so she wouldn,t jump on the sofa
But this morning OH dear back too one crazy pup >
I have spent the whole morning chasing her around trying too stop her from juming and playing it really is useless she is full of it and the vets say too keep her quiet i,d like too see them try and also I was right and the vets were wrong it was nettle rash not mange um i won,t say i told you so...!!!

Ar thats brillant news re the nettle rash. Mum knows best. Well trying to keep a pup still is like trying to win the big cash out lotto, you just cant . I suppose its good Ava is full of beans after a op. Perhaps you should stop chasing her instead

Great to hear she's bouncing back (literally!).

so right Caryll i should have done, i was fumming they didn,t say she could have it they said she did have it and they did a skin scrap too check how bad the demodectic mange was, i told them she had ran through nettles this morning and its exactly what my other girl has NOPE they knew best!! You should have seen their face when they had too tell me it was nettle rash

Very satisfying I should think!

Pleased to hear that Ava is kind of on the mend, keeping her quiet, thats a good one Good luck anyways.

Very happy to read your good news.

Thats great news on both parts

As I always say, the hardest part is making them realise that they have to be calm after!!

Thanks Janey Lynne and Kathy, End of day 1 and i have run myself ragged trying too keep her quite and calm NO CHANCE she doesn,t even seem too have any pain today and i have realised that me trying too stop her jumping is making it worst, but the vets said she can really damage herself internally I just wish they could sedate her for a week xxxxx

Just make sure you stop the jumping & stairs, easier said than done, have you got a crate? I have never used one but it can really help, especially when you have the 2.

Hi Janey she does have a great but with this heat haven,t really wanted too confine her too much, i am have no stairs so that helps but the little bugger has jumped on the sofa!!! if you try too grab her too stop it you can do more damage, i didn,t expect her too be this lively lol xx

I was really lucky with Moo, when she had her op she came to work with me, I could just shut her out the back of the bar and there wasn't any distractions!!

I can't really remember Scrumps, but I know we had an issue with the bed, sofa and stairs. It'll be fine in the long run, just never had 2 together, which I guess can be harder

glad to hear all went well and Ava is on the mend,is a nightmare trying to keep them calm,good luck with it ><
