christ!!!
what a fucking nightmare!!!!
how do you get the dog who hates going in the car, in the car
answer after 20mins of pulling/pushing etc - you dont
i gave up - was in tears - had visions of a dog dying on me as couldnt breath
i just couldnt get 10.5stone of him even near the car
he isnt daft and as soon as saw the car he ran in opposite direction - pulling me with him - he weighs almost the same as i do
anyway to cut long story short
his face was so swollen, and eyes shut, and he kept trying to rub is poor nose/muzzle with paw
both of our 2 local branches didnt have any vets free to come out
vet said to me to give piratin - which i did 20mls - dont forget he is a big dog - i normally give 5 to my 6yr who weighs about 4stone
anyway after about 30mins left eye is starting to open and he had eaten some sains best ham ( i had to make sure airway was open )
he is laying by me at the moment, with paw on my leg
rang mb and gave her the update - she is on her way home - and i feel a right pillock that I started to cry down the phone to her saying i couldnt get him in the car
she told me not to be silly, and its not my job to look after him etc, and that i did the best i could - she also cant get him into car - only one who can is db - fuck knows how he does
anyway - hopefully my gentle monster will be ok - can have more drugs at midnight and again at 7/8am tomorrow
thank god tomorrow i am not working - i am stressed and need wine!!
i am a fab nanny and can cope with children no probs, and even phone someone to sort out bees nest after i found it this am
just didnt expect dog to get stung and prob lots of time judging by the swelling
thanks bella and kc
