Poor doggie. He seems a feisty little chap. We have cats, and it's so worrying when they're not well. Regards licking, doesn't your vet give him a big bucket thing to prevent it? When we walk around our local 0ark we meet lots of dogs. It's great fun. Hope the two of you walk together again soon. My favourite poirot is Peter Ustinov
The Terrier! T-bomb! What a sweetie. It's tough walking without your companion. My pooch was limping, has shoulder inflammation and is on strict home rest. We miss our hikes with him. I won't go without him. I told hubby, You're on your own. I walk down the driveway with pooch-Apollo. That's the extent of it. I hope T-bomb heals quickly. How old is he?
@JeannineOulette recommended a sweet biography of a dog by Virginia Wolf, called Flush. I bought a used copy on Thriftbooks and it's a first edition! It's a sweet book. Highly recommend.
What a great read as I sit in the late afternoon sun after a short bike ride in the winter cold, waiting for one of my favorite suppers prepared by my Jim. Poor doggo, I hope he feels better and heals moment by moment. I also hope you feel better as you cheer him on to feel better, in-tandem healing. I'll come back to this great post and note your recommendations; so much to choose from! Thank you for them.
There is absolutely nothing so sad to behold as a Terrier who's not well. It's so obvious right away that they are in pain because they are usually so brave and stoic. I feel for this poor sweet fellow who has done SO well, tried so hard! Enduring foot pain (as I can relate!) is the worst, it makes any of us crabby and ornery. But all these other challenges as well! It's way too much and I hope you are all over the worst of it now. You describe everything so well, Prue, I could weep over the accompanying pics as well. (That tiny sock too ...!) Please, please keep us up to date. I bet you've made him something lovely to eat in order to tempt him. He's lucky to have such a stellar home and mum xo
So many emotions. Your poor Terrier. Sigh. And you two having to dress his little foot and Him not liking it AT ALL. Understandably. And then other sections like that swim in crystal clear waters! Oooohhhhh. So beautiful.
The weather is all over the place this year. We're finally heading into the mid-30s next week I think, but they're having so much trouble making accurate forecasts.
And thanks for the glorious German video. What talent! Beautiful.
What a brave, brave boy, Prue - and you, too, of course. It's so hard when the ones we love are poorly. I have a post-operative patient of my own on my hands at the moment (who's doing really, really well!) so I can relate in a small way - although I appreciate that being an animal patient (yours) rather than human (mine) there are so many added frustrations because of difficulty in expressing feelings in a language the carer can understand! Sending love, love, love - you're doing a terrific job!
The Terrier couldn't be in better hands. Or paws. ♥️
Prue, I'm sorry for all that your furry friend, and you, are going through and hope you're past this latest round by the time you write next week. Of course, as he feels better, it will be harder and harder to not allow him access to the beach. But one step at a time, right?
Your description of the swim and the time on your friend's verandah sounded, as you imply, like a a trip to another country. Of course, picturing you there in your own country, with lemon trees nearby, is dream enough for me! I had to look up the recipe and found this one, which sounds quite nice. Similar, I assume, to the one your friend make? https://www.seriouseats.com/panforte-di-siena-dried-fruit-nut-cake-recipe
Never has the sentiment "Be well" been more apt. Here's hoping!
I’m sorry the Terrier is going through this. Total empathy. Thanks, though for the descriptions of summer. I needed that reminder as I look out on my snow covered yard.
Another brilliant episode of Muster Dogs tonight. We live in such a glorious country! Such a joy watching these dogs and their farmers. Hugs dear Prue.
Oh, my heart goes out to the terrier; he looks so unhappy. If only we could make them understand that what we're doing is actually going to help them. It's tough when our furry friends are unwell because they are so loved. I send positive wishes to you both for strength and a speedy recovery!

Poor darling dog, I hope he will be back on his walks with you before too long xxx

Poor little him. And I’m so with you - walking without a dog is unthinkable
He’s been through so much! May he have a swift recovery…and soon walking with his Mum again!
