Hi,
Hello everyone, sorry haven't been around, now just giving the up to date news about Rex. Everything into order now, by putting him up in our room at night in his little niche has solved the problem. We have now removed the white bits on the stairs and laid half moon carpet shapes, this way he doesn't slip at all, we have even put a child light in the stair way so that he can see if he wants to come down in the night, not only that, our cat has stopped pissing outside the cat litter, she now goes down the stairs, I think cats must loose the sight in their eyes, their night sight when they get older as well, the other 3 use the cat litter. He is still on his homeopathic treatment, this calms him down generally, he doesn't like it when I'm not around, but it's impossible to take him every where, so this helps. In fact he is so good, he doesn't even wee on the news paper I put down for him at the top of the stairs, he waits until we get up in the morning, then trots down the stairs very carefully and goes out side to to do his wee, he holds on for 8 hours, which is very good for an old gentleman. So I thank you all again for giving me your experiences, this has really helped me make my mind up to take him up stairs in our bedroom, and he is so good, so clean. My friend will be coming round on the 10th November with his brother, they will celebrate their 15th Birthday together, not only that he has no heart problem at all, since I took him of the pills he was on and changed vets, he is really doing well. These heart pills make the dogs wee all the time, and I'm so cross he was diagnosed with heart problems when he didn't have. so always get a second opinion !!!! Well long may he continue to be with us, for as long as possible, he is such a sweet love, and the other two big dogs adore him. Thanks again and speak to you again soon, no doubt on another subject.
