Hi there Lesley
I think that you will find that there are a lot of us here that are technophobes My computer has a mind of its own, it has come so close to going through the window on many occasion, it took me ages to get pictures on the site, it is so much easier now that they have changed everything, but it is still hard the first time to do anything, thank goodness I was taught to type at school. I never thought that I would ever use it but here I am typing away like a secretary. Well that was their thoughts at school anyway...All the best can't wait for the pictures Dee and the gang

..Aw...Hattie looks very cute and a bundle of fun !! We loved Dalbeattie forest...it was one of our favourite places....are you very far from there ?? The girls are really missing all the extra exercise and are driving me nuts at the moment....!! Thinking about moving up in the not too distant future....miss having more land...and more doggies!!

Hi there Lesley
Congratulations on placing a picture on your profile that took me forever, just couldn't get the hang of it, and yet now it seems so easy, well until I come to try it again.
Your wee girl looks really happy she seems to have a smile on her face.
Congratulations again Dee and the gang

Hi Lesley
Thanks for your comments, Jinney is doing really well at the moment but as I can't pinpoint what set off the bloat I am just going to have to watch her all the time. The vet said that with the technic he used to sew her stomach in place she shouldn't twist again but I'm still going to have watch her. The dogs like the fact they get their breakfast an hour earlier now so that we go out two hours after!

Hi Lesley,

I have just found the other comment you left for me. This is NOT your fault!!!!!! It s very understandable that you are so upset, it would be very hard for anyone to see their beloved dog like that, but at least now Hattie will be pain free and I don't think the vet would have suggested this if it wasn't necessary. Hattie will cope without her leg very well, they are truely amazing creatures. Try not to be upset around Hattie as she will pick up on your mood, you need to be cheerful and strong around her for her sake to aid the healing.

Hugs to you both,

Michelle

Hi Lesley, i'm quite new to ES so i'm looking around and i saw a message you left for Michelle Webster, am i right in thinking your Hattie has lost a leg to bone tumor? I ask because my boy Finlay also has this, we thought he sprained his paw but when he didn't improve vet x-rayed leg phoned to say they thought it was tumor that was december, he had biopsy in Jan it was inconclusive after more x-rays and seeing specialist they all agreed only thing is Finlay seems to be doing well there not keen to amputate at moment i just dont know what to do for the best, would like to hear your thoughts, thanks Ellen (",)
