Thread: Good vibes needed for Brucee please....

Also for his mummy who goes to bits like every one else on here when this is something amiss with their babe,especially when it is the lightweight, long,slim,bend at a wrong angle legged boy with magnificent presence & deep down is mum's favourite one who can do no wrong.
Over the last few years Bruce has had big problems with both his sacroiliac joints becoming fixed which in turn put his spine out & we are so lucky to have a vet who is a chiropractor who has always kept him free & moving with ease,after the first few sessions we have taken him up for a quick top up session every three months or so but this time he had to go early as he seemed in a lot of pain & was really miserable,the first week he had completely seized at the back plus all his spine was out,could hear the pops as the vet worked up his back,the second week everything was fine with jumping gear but one spot on his spine was very sore now this week everything started off well but the vet hit another very sore spot but further up the spine so on monday he is coming to work with me to have xrays done,so what does one do but panic,there may be nothing at all wrong,fingers crossed,there may only be slight arthritic changes,he will be nine this month,there could be spondylosis of the spine{ but along with chiro China who had the worst ever spondylosis of the spine & OA of every joint that either of our vets had seen kept mobile without need of pain relief right up to the end}so really I can cope with that but being a mum you think the worse & what ifs start creeping in,also Bruce although very brave at facing things at the vets when he comes home is a real wuss,nothing of course to do with the fact that he knows mummy is wrapped round that bendy front paw,now where is my little boy,will feed the others & pop them out in the pen while I find what I can tempt my litle lover boy with today for brekkie,bless his little white cotton socks....!

Positive thoughts coming your way - but I understand those collywobbles all too well

Poor Bruce and poor you - nothing worse than when our furry babies are ill or suffering.

I hope it's just a bit of a blip and that he can get it sorted out and be comfortable again

Enrique sends cuddles your way ;-)

Oh I hope Bruce is ok. I know what you mean about worrying about them if they're ill. I'm dreadful and if they have to go to the vet for anything I get so wound up it's untrue.

Tell Bruce that Teddy is sending him happy wishes xx

big hugs from us all xx

Thank Enrique Louise,looking forward to seeing him growing up & thinking "If only"that is even further into the distance now with Bruce getting so upset having the other furries about but fingers crossed when we can get him sorted things will settle down again,on the other hand with the extra attention he is getting & no threat of the water squirter "because he is so poorly"knowing him either way he will play this for all his worth,for the first time for several days he ran out into the garden,had a goood roll round & chirruped at the others,he then saw me watching & went all pathetic,perhaps he realised that being such a weakling had finally got the better of mum & wanted to try & cheer her up a bit...
Thanks everyone will post when I get home Monday anything that has or has not been found up to that point,our bloods get sent away so will not know the results on them until Tuesday..

Poor Bruce huge hugs from us x

Thinking of you and Bruce. Best wishes.

Oh Jackie

Poor Brucie, heaps of hugs and healing thoughts from all in this household xxx
