About Me

My photo
I like food, walks, cuddles, more food, the seaside, other dogs, food, my frisbee and destroying things. Most of all I love My People and lots of lovely attention. Some say I'm spoiled. I say I get treated as I should be ;) I'm a healthy happy eight year old. The only thing wrong with me (God willing) is epilepsy which costs my owners lots of money and means I have to eat yukky tablets but otherwise seems to bother them more than it bothers me because they remember my fits and I don't. Other than that, I'm a happy lad and I love my people and I'm lucky to live in a place where there are nice walks. I wouldn't want to live in a town.

Poor Bubby Part 2


Hello everyone,

This is Brucies Auntie here. Mummy and Brucie are downstairs having a cuddle at the moment because Bruce is not a happy boy so they have asked me to write today's post.

Earlier this afternoon, Bruce stepped off of the couch wrong and one of his back legs has gone into spasm. He is in pain, poor boy, he is not at all impressed and he didn't even want his dinner, which can't be good.

I called the Vet and the Nurse said to rest him this evening and to gently stretch his leg if he would let us. We have tried some stretches which have helped to bring him out of spasm a little but it still hurts, bless him. We can't even give him any pain relief as it would mess up his epilepsy medication. We don't want him fitting again so we will just have to comfort him and help him with stretches when he is willing.

Hopefully Brucie will be back tomorrow to fill you in on his day, if not either Mummy or I will be back with an update.

Today's picture shows Brucie on his walk looking for bunnies this afternoon before he got a sore leg.

Take care, Auntie xxxx
