All aboard Podsquad, it's Pod thread number 4.

In case you were wondering:

  • What is this (surprisingly) long-running thread about? A unique lunatic rescue Podenco, known as Pod. Featuring his pals, Stanley, GentleHowl, BabyPod, GentleBounce, Fastest and Princess and many more.
  • What makes you so special that you get your own thread? See above

Seriously, if anyone is considering getting a teenage/rescued/sight-hound/Podenco/all of the above and has NO idea what they're doing, please enjoy the previous instalments from the day we brought him home, to now, six months later. Posts will oscillate wildly from euphoric to mental breakdown and back again.

Here is thread No. 3 https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/thedoghouse/5248472-they-love-a-bit-of-him-podlife?page=1

Here is thread No. 2 https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/thedoghouse/5197068-the-pod-cast?page=39&reply=141216881

His poor tummy he will be exhausted.

spiderlight · 23/07/2025 23:56

I hope the CT sheds some light and helps to get him sorted. I saw your post on Insta so he's been in my thoughts all day.

MaxandMoritz · 24/07/2025 08:19

Hoping for some news soon.

FeralWoman · 24/07/2025 08:39

How’s Pod doing? Any answers yet from the vets?

MaxandMoritz · 24/07/2025 17:03

It's worrying that Hanging hasn't been back yet.

HangingOver · 24/07/2025 17:30

So sorry my superdooper Podsquad! Yesterday ended up being mad and exhausting.

Pod was soooo wobbly and cute when I collected him. Like last time he had a GA he completely forgot how to lie down so I had to lift him onto the sofa and sort of scoot his leggies down for him bit by bit. He felt cold so I wrapped him in a soft blanket and cuddled him for a few hours. By evening however it was situation normal. He had a short poop walk at 10pm and drifted off like a lamb but was back up to his antics at midnight and didn't settle til 3.30.

Ive just dropped off for a nap and Wiggle started screaming at something in her mind outside.

Spanners departure is imminent! I actually can't wait.

No results for a few days and in the meantime we struggle on I guess.

Editing as I've just seen your update, Hanging. Glad that Pod is home safe and well!

LadyGrillingSole · 24/07/2025 17:47

Poor boy, what a rough time he's having 🙁

You must be exhausted too, the worry and lack of sleep is a killer. Let's hope the scan gets the ball rolling on some effective treatment for Pod's poorly tum 🙏

Agree. Hope to goodness they get an answer to his problems.

Ellmau · 24/07/2025 18:55

You won't be sorry to see (hear) the back of Wiggle :)

Good luck with Pod's results.

spiderlight · 24/07/2025 21:30

Just passed this number plate and had to take a photo of it for you, @HangingOver . Hope you get the results back quickly and that you all get some rest in the meantime!

Any Pod results back yet @HangingOver? I hope that you’ve managed to get some decent sleep or catch up naps over the weekend.
