My poor 5 year old Staffie is currently at the vets and I am so worried as it's not looking good.
I love him to pieces and so do the DCs and DH and we will all be devastated if we lose him. They are upping his medication to try and help him but he is already on such a high dose they will have to monitor his liver first.
I need some hand holding and cute dog pictures please as DH has taken the laptop with our pictures on to work and I don't have any on my tablet because it doesn't have a camera.

I don't have any pictures but I can do the handholding.

My dog is also 5 and I had a conversation with the vet yesterday about when to put him to sleep. It's shit isn't it.

I hope your dog is ok.

Hand holding here, from me. Patch is snoozing but giving his best, too.

I know how that feels. Patch had emergency surgery three weeks ago and I was so fearful that we wouldn't get him back.

It is really shit. Our last dog lived till she was 14 with no health problems till her last year of life and we knew when it was time to pts.
But this time it's so different. He is okay some days and then he fits and for 5 minutes he looks so scared and lost but then for the next few days he was fine but recently he has been firing more and I don't want him to suffer but the time in between is still so good.

Iougle patch looks lovely

Patch was meant to be a purebred staffy Hmm

Iougle dogbert was a rescue staffie who was a "purebred" staffie who would "fill out when he gets older" as it happens he still has a scrawny torso and a massive head
