I'm so sorry about Poppy not feeling well--I know it's hard when you're just helpless...When I'm helpless, I just put into the Hands of Someone Who isn't helpless! But still, I know it's hard, and the morning will soon be here. OK?

Hi all!

Thanks so much for the collective hug.. Made me feel great!

So, it turns out that Poppy is feeling under the weather because she's hurt her leg (she's limping all over the place ). She's off her food too so it must really hurt her .

The vet has given me 5 days of pain killing drops and we've got to back on Saturday for an X-Ray if she's no better... I don't know how she did it, I've been racking my brains, as since we got her I've been so so careful to not excercise her too much or do the stairs thing etc. Maybe it's just one of those things.

The vet has also said not to walk her at all, just potty on a lead until she's better. The poor wee mite is a sorry looking thing right now... She cannot put any weight on her leg at all...

I'll keep you posted.

xx

How old is Poppy? Did the vet think it might be panosteitis?
