Well I haven't been clocking up the miles this last week or so in my 'Walk a Thousand Miles' challenge mainly due to the fact that my walking companion Charlie has not been well - problems with his anal gland . He has not been a happy chap at all and has finally had to have an op to remove the remaining anal gland . (he had the other one removed about two years ago)
He has recovered remarkably swiftly (far faster than I would I think !) but is on antibiotics and some pain killers and has to wear this 'cone of shame' - which he is definitely NOT happy about - but needs it on to stop him licking his wound and pulling his stitches out .
Our two cats are very intrigued by his neck wear . He has to remain on his lead when going for a walk and of course things like narrow stiles are definitely out of the question which has limited our walking routes .
All in all he has managed very well so far and has to go back to the vets on Friday to have his stitches removed - so hopefully normal service will resume and we can get back to some serious walking .
Poor chap... Sounds particularly unpleasant. He could pass as a dashing Elizabethan pooch with that ruff.
ReplyDeleteSome dogs seem prone to these problems, having the last one remove will be a relief.
DeleteHopefully he'll have a quick healing and no repetition.
ReplyDeleteHe seems well on his way to recovery , happy enough except for the cone of shame .
DeleteAlways distressing to see our furry companions go through such things, although it is reassuring to know that Charlie will come through and back on the trail again!
ReplyDeleteHe has adapted very well and they seem much more resilient than us .
DeleteHope your mate Charlie has a full recovery and can join you in an enjoyable walk in nature again soon.
ReplyDeleteYes he is feeling a lot brighter and gets his stitches out on Friday .
