I feel for your brother.

I didnt ask her how she lost it.
there was a shift change at the hospital so DD had 2 drs. she told them she will be clean a month tomorrow. they BOTH offered her drugs !  I was very proud of her.  She said couldnt get them when I wanted them and now they are throwing them at me. I asked her if she knew why they would do that and she said "He is testing me ".

Good for her granny. Sounds like she's really trying hard.

He eats his crunchy food and you don't worry about that so it probably won't do anything. They are supposed to hold gently without biting.

granny, have any of the doctors ever offered or suggested DD get some counseling?  None of this is purely physical, the emotions can be overwhelming.  Maybe there is a support group or something.  It's good she has you, but you can't do everything (even though I know you'd try!)

That's a great idea wishing. I know t helped me talking to others about my alcohol problem.

drs have not. today he did say a lot of the problems were mental but without solution . I have mentioned it to her a few times . her van is broke down still. I know she needs it and so does she somehow we are left convincing the rest. he said for every year she was on it would be a month to get her emotions straight. that would make that 7 months.

I am happy she moved here so I could help her. she is not the only one going through this. her DH as well. but he wasnt what i would call an addict.

Catching up:

1 husband, 2 kids, 2 dogs, 1 cat, 4 guineas, 25-30 chickens...? I never can remember.

Twist: Ben was alright. He was in the kennel a lot today because I couldn't watch him. No squabbles at supper, but he went straight over and peed on a quilt. My throat is sore from trying to make my voice big and deep like the previous guy. He had a big food belly tonight, that was cute. And he laid down for the first time.





Those are bones, not vomit. We aren't sure he's ever had a bone before? Do people let their retrievers chew on bones? I asked DH if he was willing to ruin a soft mouth and he said "He's finally happy." So, I guess that's that.

bone chewing has never made any of my dogs "hard" mouthed.

Ok, good. We love to give bones. Giving soft toys has led to the gruesome and untimely deaths of many of DD's stuffed babies.

So Beth last night needed some cuddle lap time with me and she usually ends up on her back she was starting to get "squirely" and mouthing my hand/fingers/arm I look down at her and ask what her issue was and got a slurp in the face so I stuck my thumb in the front part of her mouth she fell asleep sucking my thumb. AND NO red nothing else so don't go there.

Just get the white rawhide. The brown kind turns into gum when they chew it. And that looks like carpet.
