Finally we got some real rain. It came with its very own fanfare of thunder and was illuminated by lightning. We can\u2019t remember the last time it really rained very much. I wanted to go outside but Mum put her foot down and said not with the lightning. We had to make do with sitting at the window watching it. It started not long after Mum\u2019s birthday present was delivered, which is the chair for her and me to sit in outside. She didn\u2019t even get chance to finish setting it up for me to try, so that has to wait now until it stops raining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shadow is going back to the vet today. She\u2019s finished her antibiotics but is still coughing. Mum was looking up if it was possible for a dog to have a tooth out under a local anaesthetic, but it turns out that it would be a very brave vet who tried it. I suspect they\u2019d be all right with Shadow, but I can see why they wouldn\u2019t want to try. Mum seems sure the teeth are the cause of her keep getting fluid on her lungs from the infections she gets, but the problem is how to solve the issue. Mum is going to ask the vet today if they can think of any longer term option for Shadow\u2019s sake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s very exciting, four puppies of our breed will be joining us in the UK in October. They are moving here from the Czech Republic and I can\u2019t wait to make them all welcome. None of them will be living here, so don\u2019t worry I\u2019m not being replaced. They are coming to live with families who\u2019ve been patiently waiting for one of our breed to join their families. It\u2019s lovely news and always good to find our numbers increasing. That will take us up to around 136 in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
