HI, SPOT ON DAWN . ME DAD HAS JUST TOLD ME THAT A LABOURER ON HIS SITE HAS A PATTERDALE WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS SO HES GIVE HIM SOME INFO WE HAD PRINTED OUT . WE GOT SOME DVDS SENT TO US SHOWING LOADS OF BORDERS HAVING THESE FITS AND WE HAD TO PICK WHICH ONE WAS CLOSEST TO OUR DOGS FITS AND TELL THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE RESEARCHING IT . I READ AS MANY POSTS AS I CAN ON HERE AND SOME OTHER SITES BUT I HAVENT SEEN ANY OTHER POSTS ABOUT DOGS FITTING LIKE THIS . JACKO

In line with the fitting thing, I had a dog that had 'Turns' Not full on fits but would do a shakeing head routine, could distract her and keep her out of it, Vet diagnosed it as ' a post hipatic shunt' (not spelt correctly) down to the diet and too much protien, body wasnt filtering it right and shunting too much to the brain. Changed the diet to less protien and didnt have problems after that. Long term it isnt advisable and worried the f out of me. Told to aim for more Carbohydrates for stamina than protein.

Vets canceled on thursday with all the snow, but we will be booking her in for sometime next week.

HOPE SHE'S OK LET US KNOW JACKO.

Had her in there on friday, as I suspected the vets said nothing more conclusive than you lot "Well it could be......" "It might be dog acne......" "It could possibly be......" Cant f*****g stand vets

 

Had to endure some fecking old woman telling be about her 'Bunnies', no not Rabbits, there fecking Bunnies! and how it has bad feet lol Felt like saying...... I DONT GIVE A SHIT!!!

 

Went to find out what they were, came back without an answer, all the vet did was tell me she needs worming (and so do mums cats- how f*****g conveniant, hey?)

 

Anyone else dispise vets? Or anyone know any vets that share interests in fieldsports?

Anyone else dispise vets?

 

 

Know what, mate? I stopped and thought long and hard there. Realised something:

 

I have NEVER, in a long life time so far, had a vet 'cure' ANYTHING on Any f*cking animal for me! Looking back, all they've ever done was, like yours there, sold me some half arsed if or maybe, could be this or that shit. Or else the f*cking creatures died despite what ever they've charged me!!!

 

What do You think I think?

 

Now get the Dog off the dried shit and onto flesh and bones. The Liver Spots'll likely clear up soon enough. No charge for that one, by the way

Actually Ditch, she had 2 rabbit legs today for dinner, got them last week and have been frozen, she did enjoy them, Bloomin dog caned the lot! fur and all. I have pleantly of pheasent I can give her aswel, loads that I get from beating, still in the freezer, she can have some tommorow. Slowly but surley Im geting there

 

The vet also asked what I feed her, so I said mainly dry food, james wellbesomethingorother what did she reply? you should start feeding her on 'Science proplan' Which, coincidently they sold in reception- theiving b*****ds!

 

But yes, She will be on meat soon enough

'Science'?! Yeah. That'd be it, mate. Feed the buggers on that shit and insure them with PetPlan. Then, later on down the line, the vet can cream a small fortune off ye insurance for treating the poor thing for cancer! Getting it nicely sewn up again, aren't they?

 

Ye know, probably just before your time on here, I don't know, but someone mentioned a conversation one of their family had with a vet. " Oh, " said this person, " We feed our Dogs on a BARF diet. " This vet looked them straight in the eye and said ~ I kid ye not! ~ " 'BARF"? What's BARF? "

 

I'm afraid I'd have slapped the c***!
