The Cervical and Double P II gave him diarrhea with a tiny amount of blood the day after he came home (Wed.) Wed. night after his 2nd poop same thing blood in with diarrhea, I called the vet, she cut back both meds to once a day from twice a day and gave me Methocarbamol to stop the diarrhea. Diarrhea cleared up in one and a half days and no blood.

I feel so bad, several times a day he'll bring me a toy to toss so he can fetch, I ignore him, I hate doing that, I don't want him to feel rejected. These dogs are amazing, they bounce back so fast but I know he is not fully healed. Trying to keep this 9 year old calm is a challenge.

Now that you mention Piper's back flip just reminded me of Cody's. 3 years ago the HOA made everyone take down their fences so I put up a clothes line and made a dog run, I had 25 feet of rope on it attached to a clip so he could have 25 feet of snooping area in all directions. Cody was fine with that, he had his hunting rock. I turned my back and the next minute I hear line zipping, Cody took off like a bat outta hell behind the shed out of my view, I knew he had to have come to the end of that rope and had to have been jerked to a stop and had to have flipped over and landed on his back, but he was fine, thing is, he never used that rope line again. I would take him out, clip him up, he just stood there, wouldn't move, so that ended his zip line dog run. I will mention this in a note to the vet with 9/4 follow up. I am soooo glad you juggled my memory cells. This could be the reason he put his back out of alignment last week with his crawling under a low steel step.
Mr wiggles, when I went to pick him up they have numbered parking spots, you have to call the office, let them know what # you're parked in. Since I had his harness and leash I reminded her to send someone out to get them. I told her when he sees me he's going to be like a bull coming out of a bull chute, she laughed, but that's how this dog is when a tech takes him to another room for a procedure, he's wild, he will tear up your face and arms with his nails. This tiny woman brings him out to me, no harness, not even a slip leash and the highway is right there. He went insane when he saw me and I was inside my car, I made her put him in through the window before he fought his way out of her grasp. I hope he never has to be kept at the vet again during this pandemic. Piper and Cody must have the same genes in them, sounds like they are related lol.
