My dog is no better I'm going to have to take her vets as soon as possible. I'm dosing her up on tramadol at the moment (pain relief) which is really strong. I've got a horrible feeling that it is another major operation she will need, the leg is just hanging like it was when her last ligament snapped.
The vets replaced her ligament with what they described as really strong fishing line. I didn't think it could snap but seems like it might have.

I'm very very unhappy

Sending you hugs Lynne as I can imagine how upset you must be about Bonnie. I hope the vet sorts it out asap. X

Thanks Emma

She needed to go vet for blood test in the new year too. Vet thinks shes got thyroid problem they will be tested for thyroid or allergy. Bonnie constantly scratches making herself bleed She was at the vet just before xmas for it. The vet said if she was a stray she would have aged her at 7 years old and shes only 41/2 years old

So far she has had two ligament replacements in both back legs, op on her foot, lump removed from shoulder, she has arthiritus so is on daily suppplements, always on antibiotics for various infections.

Poor Bonnie - she's really been through it! She's so young to have arthritis. Do you think this slows her down a bit Lynne, or is she still as mad as ever?
I hope the tramadol is helping her pain.
