Pebbles is going to have to go back to the vets again


It is 6 weeks since her leg removal, and she is doing really well, she has the occasional struggle to get on the bed but that is about it really - I will post some pics later. She is up this week for her first weigh in since it, to check that she hasn't put too much on, but her nose is looking worse than it has ever done
. I rang the vets earlier this week, as it was looking bad then, and it is looking even worse now, and her 'nose vet' is on Mat leave till about Christmastime, so at the moment, there isn't anyone knowledgable enough about it, they were hoping that one of the locums would know something about it and could see her for me. If not, I honestly dont know where we are going to go. Everytime one thing is sorted, another thing rears its ugly head, and yet again I am struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and not made easier by the fact that until we know what these locums are like, there isn't a vet at my practice who can deal with it.

Here are a couple of pics - a previous one of her nose



and one taken today

Let's hope one of the locums does know.
Glad to hear she's doing well on three legs, though. She seems to have settled down after that operation quite well. Real shame that her nose has gotten worse. : /

Re: Pebbles is going to have to go back to the vets again


Well, I spoke to the vet nurse today, who was goign to have a chat with the vet and get back to me, although I am still waiting. She did say though, that if there is no one there who can deal with it, they would have to refer her. I Really dont want to go down the specialist route though, it is a long journey, and I am really good at getting lost everytime I try and go somewhere new, however easy it is supposed to be!!

Sorry about her nose, hopefully one of the locums will have a good idea what is wrong.

Glad that she is coping well with 3 legs, poor Pebbles.

They do like us worrying.

Take Care.
