Friday, best day of the week because it is
Square Dog Friday !
thehamish went to the vet two weeks ago and he was doing "good" ?
Then a few days ago the shaking started.
Monday, drinking lots of water then throwing it all up.
We zoomed him off to Hospital and his numbers were all over the place.
His diabetes number was 500 alone.
The Doctor got him stabilized, pumped him full of nutrients through a camel pack.
Gave him several shots and of a course pills to take home.
He said he could come home but the Doctor called us the next day, his day off.
.
This is how he spent the next two days !
Sleeping !
On Thursday I thought he felt better so we opened his "BarkBox" and had a little fun.
This month was a Western Theme Box.
The Pug's face come out and you put your sweet baboo's photo in instead.
thehamish does not eat the snacks, he is on a very special diet.
I send them to Bailey who can eat everything and his friends.

A lawn with a split personality.
Little Islands of growing fairy forests in the lawn.
Today is the last day of cooler weather. This weekend it will be in the 90's
then next week starts the 100+ heat.
We have two wildfires in Southern Arizona burning right now, one has been put out.
It will be a long summer. I hope we get our summer rains this year.

It does look as though the Hamish is improving by the time I am reading this. Give him a hug and tell him he is a brave boy from me.
ReplyDeleteHis kidneys, bladder and liver were all acting up.
DeleteWe know he doesn't have a long time to live but .....
So glad he's home xx
ReplyDeleteI know he is and me too !
DeleteOh my, thehamish, I'm glad you feel well enough to play with your cactus. You would not want pork and beans anyway because they make everyone gassy. I wish I had shoes with gud dogs.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Not real pork and beans, the snacks are all made in the USA and these are wheat, corn and soy free.
DeleteMade with pork, garbanzo beans and maple syrup.
Oh wow thehamish - what great treats and what a super toy the cactus is - it's cute. Hope you'll soon be feeling better - you look very well !
ReplyDeleteLove the last photo, too.
He usually looks really good for the camera. But on Monday he was dragging.
DeletePoor Hamish. The cactus seems to cheer him up.
ReplyDeleteThey have told us he doesn't have too long to live.
DeleteI hope he hangs on long enough to see the new Scotty'
I have waited to long for this.
I read your comment and your post. Sorry he doesn't have long to live. What a sweetie babe, he is.
ReplyDeleteWe are still grieving over Watsons and now thehamish
DeleteYes. It sucks. So sorry, Gayle.
DeleteLove the fairy forests and hugs to the Hamish!
ReplyDeleteYes we have the desert fariy living here.
DeleteBless his sweet little self... so sweet
ReplyDeleteHe is just the best, like Watson.
DeletePoor Hamish, but he is lucky to have boxes of treats to investigate and a loving home! The grass certainly looks strange. Weather's odd everywhere these days, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteOur weather is so odd the past few years.
DeleteBoxes are fun.
I hope sweet Hamish is feeling better. It looks like he's enjoying his Bark Box. What a cute idea!
ReplyDeleteMaybe the rains will come and the wildfires won't be so bad this summer. Your lawn certainly looks confused!
Summer rains are usually very destructive and with the lighting always a chance of fires.
DeleteThe lawn made me laugh as that is what's going on here too. So glad Ham is better. I asked my vet if I could use a human diabetes test kit to test Sister's insulin levels. I can't remember what she told me, but you can get one for Ham that isn't too expensive. Poor boy. Happy he's better.
ReplyDeleteHe has been on insulin for over 12 years.
DeleteHe is better today but these breakdowns are coming faster and faster now.
I am glad that The Hamish got such joy out of the box of goodies he got, even if some of them were things that wouldn't work for him. I don't know why anyone would manufacture dog food treats with beans in them unless they included a container of air freshener in the package. The little cactus toy sure made Hamish happy. He has a cute smile.
ReplyDeleteMy Fuzzy Pom loves for anyone in the family, including him, to get packages delivered. He gets as excited about his doggie wee wee pads, or dog food as he does about doggie toys in the package.. He even gets excited about my mail order Glucerna shakes when they are delivered because he likes the long snake-ish brown paper that they pack in the box to keep stuff from shifting around. He played for about an hour with that paper packing the last time, tearing around the house dragging it along with him.
I wish they could figure out how to help Hamish so he wouldn't have such blood sugar problems. He's such a Gud Dog.
What is with the long brown paper thehamish loves it too.
DeleteI must admit I play with him and that.
I also keep small squeakie toys to throw in the boxes I get for him to find.
It sounds like your vet is a real jewel. Exactly what thehamish deserves. I'm glad he's feeling better. That cactus toy is adorable.
ReplyDeleteHave a super weekend. It's hot here, too, and south GA is full of wild fires. The drought continues, so when we finally got some rain a couple weeks ago, I ran outside like an idiot and washed my car. (We have strict outdoor watering restrictions in place because of the drought.) I remembered how "fun" it was to do that when I was a kid. It's not fun anymore. HA! Never again.
Sorry to hear about your fires. I have lived with them allmy life but I get tired of all the destruction.
DeleteWhen it rains here I go outside and stand in it. Heaven !
So glad you and thehamish posted today. We were getting a bit worried up here. Your vet sounds like they really, really care so much for that gud dug. Hugs and healing thoughts for you both. PS; lurve the shoes!
ReplyDeleteIt has been a tough week. I have been living with his health problems for years I try not to think of them too much because he feel what I am feeling. Trying to keep it happy.
DeleteHi, Gayle!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to reconnect with you, dear friend. I have been reading the headlines of your posts and getting the gist of what's happening in your life. I am grateful for your visit to SDMM.
I am very sorry thehamish was poorly again. My Toto guzzled water and threw it up near the end of her life. I hope the doctor can keep thehamish on an even keel. We had Toto on a special diet of lamb and potato for a couple of years to combat her skin rash problems and all it did was leave her feeling deprived of the foods she craved. It's great to see thehamish up and at ’em and poking his curious sniffer into boxes and bags. I love his "BarkBox" and that plush cactus is the cutest thing ever! I wish I could have found one for Toto.
The heat is on here in Central Florida, too. Our winter was too short, too warm and too dry. Yesterday we got our first decent rain in many months.
Please take good care of yourself and thehamish and have a good weekend, dear friend Gayle!
How is he feeling now, Gayle?
ReplyDeleteHe is better but he is naughty because he doesn't want to take the new pills.
DeleteHis "episodes" are getting closer together. I am upset.
Some days I feel so helpless trying to help him.
Nice of the doctor to call you on day off.
ReplyDeleteHe is the Doctor who saved Watson !
DeleteHe is old, no chit chat, crotchety, abrupt and terrific. .
Oh poor thehamish. I'm so sorry he had to go through such hard time. He doesn't deserve that :-( I'm glad he seems better and enjoyed the bark box. The cactus toy is very pretty!
ReplyDeleteHe is not at his best right now.
DeleteI tried 3 times to leave a comment here with my phone and every time it didn't "take". Sorry! I hope the Hamish is feeling better and I'm sorry he's having such a rough time. His cactus toy is cute.
ReplyDeleteThree friends on wordpress can not comment so I am not sure what blogger is doing.
DeleteSorry about that.
He looks so sweet with his cactus toy. I hope he continues to improve. It is such a helpless feeling watching our beloved dogs age.
ReplyDeleteLove those shoes! Poor Hamish. I'm so sorry things are going badly for him. It is lovely that he can still enjoy a good stuffed cactus!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to you and your little fella.
