Feeling better now
Hello everyone nice to catch up with the website not been on recently because Harleys been poorly over the last week or so. He was 2 years old on 28th July but because hes been ill we were not able to do a lot but he did have a lot of extra cuddles.
Harley started being sick so we kept him in plain foods and chicken we thought he was getting better so took him for a walk then we got back and he couldn't stand or walk. He was hunched up and was crying in pain. Took him to vets and they think he could have eaten something off the floor . Hes lost weight and we are trying to build him back up with chicken and scrambled eggs. He is a lot better now and has had small walks but still has low appetite but i think worst is over and hes getting there. We are also wondering if dry food is making him sick as least once a month he gets ill and we found turkey to make him the worst. We are thinking to go raw when he has fully recovered and buying complete rather than DIY as we haven't the freezer space.

Thank you Crystal, hes doing much better now he has been on a better diet than us the last few days lol i think deep down he enjoyed being waitered on all day and all he had to do was give me that sad face. They really do capture your heart.
