When I got up this morning, Greg had JB in the crate. Greg said that he hadn't eaten yet, so I opened up the crate and JB ever so slowly walked out, with his head hanging again. I picked him up to put him in my lap and he started screaching again in pain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He settled into my lap finally and laid there really still for about 45 minutes. I finally had to get in the shower for work, and picked him up and put him back in the crate and he didn't cry this time. When I got out of the shower, I let him out the crate to go out to potty, and he seemed better. This is exactly what he did before he had the back surgery. I pray that he'll be ok. I'm going to call the vet in a little bit.

Oh no! Maybe he's still recovering from the surgery? I so hope that he will be okay. Let us know what the vet says about it. (((((HUGS))))) for you and JB.

 

[Denaluvscorgis]

Thanks Melissa...I wouldn't be as worried, but he hasn't displayed this pain since we took him in for surgery last week. He has acted in pain from the surgery, but this is different...like before when his back was hurting.

We've done everything that the surgeon said to do for aftercare...I just hope he's ok.

 

[Melissa_W]

Me too, Dena. JB will be in my thoughts. I have my fingers and toes crossed.

 

[Denaluvscorgis]

Thank Melissa.

 

[Whisper]

Ohh, poor little guy. I'm still keeping you in my thoughts and sending lots of good vibes out for you guys.
I've got everything crossed. ((((((((HUGS))))))))

 

[Denaluvscorgis]

Thanks so much!!!!

 

[Doberluv]

Oh no....Let us know what the vet says. I hope he'll be OK and it's just normal healing pain. Poor little guy.

 

[Jules]

I'm sending ((((((hugs))))) and good vibes along your way, too... Maybe he just has an "off" day after the surgery (and the male in him with a low level of pain endearment shows through .. Keep your head and your spirit up, I'll pray that he will be fine!

 

[Denaluvscorgis]

Oh no....Let us know what the vet says. I hope he'll be OK and it's just normal healing pain. Poor little guy.

The vet said that he should no longer be holding his head like that!!! I'm hoping that he'll be ok. Wouldn't it be horrible if we went though all of this and he still has to be pts??

I'm worried because the vet had to close a little sooner because of bleeding. What if he didn't get all of the disk material out??

 

[Melissa_W]

Are you going to take him in for a check up?

 

[Denaluvscorgis]

He's not schedule to see his vet until Monday when they'll check his incision. He won't see the surgeon in Portland again. I'm waiting until my lunch hour to call the vet. It's hard to make those kinds of phone calls when I'm at work because I have patients coming in and out.

Hey Dena , I'm catching up again. Try not to worry too much I know its hard but JB might just be having an off day. I hope so any way. Still have my fingers crossed.

Oh dena, you must be so worried. I don't know what to say, other than that we are thinking of you and little JB. I really hope this is just a glitch.

 

[Kase]

Aww how worring for you. I hope he's ok, lots of ((((((good vibes)))))) from me, he's in my thoughts.

 

[RD]

Dena, could it be that picking him up is aggravating his back?

Poor little guy, I hope everything is okay.

 

[Red_ACD_for_me]

AWW Dena,....give JB a nice gentle hug from me I hope he will feel better soon

 

[Aussie Red]

I too hope this isn't a setback. I would imagine he hurts and I hope that is all it is. Anyway Dena hugs to you and let us know anything. I am hoping it is just a bad morning. I worry about him too. Come on little JB you can do it.

 

[Denaluvscorgis]

Dena, could it be that picking him up is aggravating his back?

Poor little guy, I hope everything is okay.

It could be hurting him, but I have to pick him up to take him out to potty. We have a step and he can't go down any steps. It hasn't hurt him the past few days...it just started this am.
