Ahh was Glory a papillion? She is very cute!

I don't think Bluto has ever missed a meal... He reminds me of my neighbors bulldog growing up that used to eat rocks. What kinds of problems did he have?

Thanks. I'm not sure she's ever missed a thing.

She's just like her father. Her mother was a long haired GSD from Germany. Out of 4 litters, there was only 1 pup that looked like her.

Yes, she was a papillon. She was cute. In her younger days if she wanted attention, she'd stamp her feet and "roo-roo" at us. Had us trained quite nicely, she did.

Glory was a beauty. It's really hard when you lose a good friend like that. Sorry for the loss.

LOL...Nope he never missed one and he would eat anything also! I had to wrestle him for rocks, sticks and some pretty other gross stuff.
He had severe aggression issues which I was later able to find they were all related to his medical problems. His liver is smaller than it should be which caused his enzymes to be severely elevated, his thyroid is low, seizures, allergies, a huge tail pocket with a twisted tail inside, and really bad arthritis. He has the knees of an old man. (I think I got them all)

He is only going to be 5 next month. It took me 2 years to find a vet to listen to me that his aggression was related to something else. Right now he is pretty stable and he is the sweetest boy now! Thank goodness because he was a nightmare for his first 2 years with us!!! We have a vet appointment tomorrow so I am hoping all goes well. He is started to act confused at times again and I think his belly looks a bit swollen. I increased his milk thistle so I am hoping his liver will continue to work for awhile.

Thanks Ed. And your Layla is a lovely girl. Not that I'm partial to german shepherds or anything

That poor dog. Kudos to you for being so patient with him. Many people would have thrown up their hands and sent him down the road. Keeping fingers crossed he gets a good report from the vet tomorrow.

Thank you! I appreciate it! Yes, believe me, there were days I thought I couldn't do it but I am glad I stuck with him because he turned out to be a really nice boy. Besides the fact the big galoot knocked me on my butt last night trying to give him a bath!!
