And, yes, we'd like to see some more pics when he's in better spirits.  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

Poopers is still a little tired, but at least he is eating well and drinking water without any problems. He seems to be walking much better today, although he still requires a little extra care.  |  IP: Logged Gordon Bachlund Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 696 From: Monrovia, CA, USA Registered: Aug 1999 posted 05-21-2003 04:56 PM                        Paul, Duke and I are pleased! Our best to Poopers for a fast recovery.  |  IP: Logged Paul G. Thompson The Weenie Man Posts: 4718 From: Mount Vernon WA USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 05-22-2003 01:48 PM                     Thought I would update again. Poopers has shown a little inprovement since yesterday. He even galloped a little today. It appears he can hold his balance a little better, but if he is walking in uneven ground or tall grass or turns too quickly he loses his balance and falls over. He tries, but after a while, he looks at me and seems to say, "OK, daddy. I had enough for now. Carry me back." On occassion when he walks, his rear end almost passes his face. Nothing like a dog walking like a horse shoe, sideways, at that! So far, every day seems to be an improvement. Last night, he finally ate something by himself. Up to that point, I had to place the food in my hand, and that is the only way he would eat.  |  IP: Logged Geoffrey Weiss Film Handler Posts: 68 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: May 2001 posted 05-22-2003 02:09 PM                     Best to Poopers and Paul from Sparky, Geoff & Kasi!

I'm glad to hear the good news, I've been following the posts. A gentleman that worked for me at one time had a dog that had the same problem as Poopers, that was three years ago his dog is doing well today, I hope the same for yours...Jim  |  IP: Logged Michael Harlow Expert Film Handler Posts: 170 From: Faversham, Kent, UK Registered: Jul 2002 posted 05-22-2003 03:32 PM                     Paul, had to laugh at you post, i have a siamese cat called Jack who does that, he walks like Slinky in Toy Story. Thumbs up for Poopers  |  IP: Logged Paul G. Thompson The Weenie Man Posts: 4718 From: Mount Vernon WA USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 05-27-2003 01:02 AM                     So far (as of today) I think there will be almost a complete recovery. On level surfaces, he walks just great, but in tall grass or uneven ground, he does have a little trouble. Today, he was able to "water the lilies" while standing on three legs. He was not very proficient at that on Saturday without peeing all over himself or completely falling down. Now he at least misses his foot, for the most part. I have to keep him away from stairwells yet...he cannot handle them either going up or going down them.  |  IP: Logged Don Bruechert Mmmmmmmmm, bird!

It's not funny, yet it still is - kind of, to think of seeing a dog try to pee and then fall over... Glad to hear he has things back under control again!  |  IP: Logged Bob Maar (Maar stands for Maartini) Posts: 28608 From: New York City & Newport, RI Registered: Feb 2001 posted 06-01-2003 04:36 PM                        Paul, I think you better take "Poopers" with you on the trip. He would be crying for your companionship. The other members on the trip can take turns walking him and keeping him company.  |  IP: Logged Rick Long Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 759 From: Toronto, Ontario, Canada Registered: Nov 1999 posted 06-01-2003 11:07 PM                     So glad to hear that Poopers is recovering nicely. I know how much these pets become a family memeber. Best of luck, Paul.  |  IP: Logged Kris Brunton Expert Film Handler Posts: 108 From: Napanee, Ontario, Canada Registered: Apr 2000 posted 06-03-2003 10:14 AM                     Glad to hear Poopers is feeling better  |  IP: Logged
