Spooky or what!

Are they weird looking or what? The new header is of the gang of our grand dogs that came to stay with us over Christmas.

Poor Ruby (on the left of the new header). She was flying around as happy as larry yesterday but by 7pm she was throwing up. After 3 vomits (bringing up more than just her tea), several carpet clean ups, she seemed to have finished.

Despite having towels, newspapers, rags and us on hand, she managed each time, to do it all over the carpet. Twice in the lounge and once on the inside of the front door when we couldn't get it open quickly enough. Luckily, unlike human sick, it doesn't have the same smell otherwise I would have been sick as well:(

Today, she is as bright as a button, going to the toilet okay and although she should not be eating for a while, will have a small portion of scrambled egg and boiled rice to see how she is with it. We were worried she might have something stuck in her bowel but it looks more like she might have eaten something that didn't agree with her.

The house is back to normal. Christmas was put away yesterday, the last of the guest and dog washing is underway and we have moved things around in the lounge and dining room to see how it feels.

  1. Wow, very spooky! Shows up in that pic just how similar Ruby and 2 of the others are - all siblings or mother/pups? Betty was sick on Christmas morning, just the once, soon as she got up. Was fine straight after though. I starve her for a few hours, then give her a bit of plain boiled rice and chicken - I keep some in the freezer ready cooked, frozen in small amounts.

    1. Mum and two of her pups. She has just had some boiled rice and scrambled egg so we will soon see if she can keep it down. Mind you, on her walk, the little scamp managed to wolf down some banana skin before we could get it all out of her mouth!

  2. It's always a worry if the pets are sick, I know I worry if any of the cats seem unwell. Happy new year to you and yours.
