Our sweet Guinness crossed the bridge this afternoon. Very suddenly, at almost 8 years old, still too young. We thought he was just having a really bad bout of his usual "boxer" stomach pangs, but he hadn't eaten in two days, and was so lethargic. Ultrasound today showed a one inch tumour on...

When my husband took Guinness back to the vet this morning, because he still wasn't eat ing and he was getting more and more lethargic. The vet had called earlier to say that the blood results showed his Pacreatic enzymes were higher but also his white blood cell was high and they had to rule...

Guinness is much worse. Back to vet for 3rd time. Guinness still hadn't eaten by yesterday evening ( more than 24 hours) and he was very lethargic so we took him back to the vet. The vet found him "un-remarkable" outside of a new growth she discovered on his paw which we hadn't noticed. She...

Guinness has always had problems with Pancreatitis. We know he is having an episode when he doesn't come running down to eat in the morning and then refuses to even take a biscuit. He won't eat anything. About two years ago the Vet gave us Tylocene to give him twice a day when he has an episode...

Just read about Cami -so sorry to hear. Just caught up with the site since Christmas. So sorry to hear you had so much upset over the holidays, but so glad to hear that Cami is home where she is most comfortable and feels the most safe and loved. That alone will do her more good than anything...

I had the same problem with Guinness. Guinness used to have such bad problems with his stomach. The rumbling sounds would wake me from a dead sleep! I knew I was in for a bad day. He would not eat on those days, he would not settle, it seemed his stomach was hard and making horrible sounds. He...

So glad to hear good news. Having been away from the site for a couple of weeks, I was saddened to read your initial entries about your lexie, but I am so glad to hear that things have turned around. It sounds like she is a really resilient fighter and my prayers for continued good news go out...

Thanks for all your responses. I think we are just going to wait until our next vet appointment and have our resident "boxer expert" give us his opinion. He is only having problems eating very hard biscuits. He eats his food and softer treats no problem. Even eats his denty-bones with no...

We took Guinness to the vet about two months ago because we suddently noticed his front small teeth had disappeared almost overnight. The vet told us that the teeth were in fact probably still there but that the gums had grown up around them. He told us they could use a type of laser to burn...

Thanks for your kind words. Lisa, I was really touched that you took the time to write and say that you were happy to hear that we had received such good news about Guinness, with all that you are going through right now. That was really lovely of you and much appreciated. We lost our first...

Sincere Condolonces Lisa, so sorry to just hear now about your devestating loss. Indy was a real champion and a true fighter. I was always amazed at the pictures you posted that a dog that was supposed to be so sick still had those beautiful boxer eyes that were filled with love and mischief...

We took Guinness in to have the stitches from his surgery removed last Friday and after a close exam the vet declared that he had come through with flying colours and the true test for us was that she advised he could go back to doing "crazy runs" in the park again without any worry. That is...

Been feeding homecooked to Guinness for two years Guinness used to have a terrible time with his stomach. Some days the rumbling of his stomach would wake us up (as he of course sleeps with us). He would refuse his food or a treat and I would have to give him an antacid and tolucene (from the...

Sending best wishes and prayers. I can't imagine what you're going through. To have this develop so fast when you thought things were turning around must be so heart-breaking. Guinness and I will be sending our prayers and wishes for whatever comfort and help can be found for lexie. Hold on to...
