Woo-I miss you, I do, but TFL is trying to put food in your face, so lighten up. Moon, Molly and Solo spent a WEEK at a place called a KENNEL. No hand feeding, no home cooked meals, only kibble and water....so, it could be worse.

Hi FL
This is Dixie'sDad and you bet I remember Sport. I also remember all you did for him. He looks great and Lady (remember her) says she's in love. If the vet's estimate on Lady's age when we found her, she is 14 or 15 today on her 3rd gotcha anniversary. Love your blog.

Flibbin' SHEENA! It's me! Ezra's Mom! Don't ask me what made me google you, but here you are and so am I! So sorry to hear about Red Dog. Drop me a line if you get a chance. My email's the same . . .

2010-03-12T22:39:24.457-08:00

No, no, I am just weirded out! I truly thought even small amounts of acetominophen would cause them to drop dead frothing at the mouth and so on. I'm very glad Sporty is comfortable and "healthy."

2010-03-11T23:05:09.906-08:00

I know how much you love being right Nickelsmum, but lots of research indicates that acetominophen is tolerated by dogs very well at certain low dosages at certain intervals. Sport's been on percocet for almost two years, so it's not killing him, obviously. I don't think we need to second vet the guess who has kept this almost 19 year old dog alive and walking, do we?

2010-03-11T22:26:25.611-08:00

I have no problem with the active part, the oxycontin. It's the acetominophen that has me freaked out. It's percocet, not just pure oxycontin? Wild. Is his liver failing anyway?

I think you should do a book. seriously.

Hooray Sporticus!

I've lost (well, they died--I didn't misplace them) five oldies in the last few years. Each was different.

My Lab was horrified the day he soiled himself and couldn't get up, and made it clear he was done.

One of my Belgians was in really rough shape (multiple terminal illnesses) but made it clear he wanted to stick around as long as he could, and died at home with no vet intervention.

The BC let us know when she'd had enough (age and hemangio).

My other Belgian wasn't ready, but he'd had a few brushes with pneumonia (secondary to megaesophagus) and I saw how bad it could get and how quick, and didn't want him to die that way.

In all cases, there were incontinence, and mobility issues, and I see those as part of the process. Once you work out your ways of dealing with them (pads and this brilliant harness from Ruffwear http://www.ruffwear.com/Web-Master-Harness?sc=2&category=1131 which I wish came standard with old dogs over 20lbs or so) it's pretty livable.

My weapon of choice for dogs who won't eat is the supermarket chicken pot pie (in the hot prepared food section).

Keep on keepin' on, Sport.

Magic indeed! Sporticus (fantastic name by the way) looks great for being almost 19!

Hi Sheena,
I sent you an email donation to support the blog, which, BTW, makes me laugh out loud every time I read it. Please don't stop. Ever. However, I noticed that you have not accepted the transfer yet. Do you want me to resend to another address?

2010-03-10T07:07:39.227-08:00

Forgive my fussing, but he's not really getting actual percocet, is he?

Yes he is actually on percocet. It's a highly controlled narcotic in Canada, so of COURSE the vet prescribed it for him. They also prescribed it to Briggs before he died. It's for serious pain and lord knows, Sport needs it!

2010-03-10T02:17:14.695-08:00

So glad to see an update on Sport..I cannot believe he is that old. Amazing. I can only hope to hold on to my old girl for that long. She is currently 13.5 and I love her so much. She has gone deaf, an irony considering that she spent ten years of her life as my hearing ear dog. *sigh* From time to time, I think about what clues are going to tell me that her time has come and I only hope that she will go gently into her goodnight. Thankfully, other than her deafness and a minor spinal issue, she seems to be in good shape. I wish dogs lived longer.

2010-03-10T00:52:02.838-08:00

Forgive my fussing, but he's not really getting actual percocet, is he? It contains acetominophen (tylenol) which is very toxic to dogs. Or at least most dogs... not magic ones. Or perhaps all the other stuff he takes neutralizes the toxic stuff! People should not be tempted to give percocet to their dogs -- this is definitely one for a vet.

2010-03-09T14:46:02.946-08:00

He is truly a handsome old guy!
Can't wait to see what you've got cooking on the new site :) I am 100% convinced that it can pay for itself and more.

Glad you are still fighting the good fight. We would sorely miss all of you if you gave up!
