For some reason we just gave our pup cups a cursory lick, and then walked away...other times we licked them clean. In a few days it will be Dalton's birthday, a given one, because he couldn't tell us when he was rescued what his real BD was. So 'Dogust 'works well for him.
Dalton could use some POTP and pawyers, as he isn't feeling 100% the past few days.
Last week, Petcretary found a dead and mauled tree rat in some tall grass...not sure when exactly it was 'deaded', and the next day, Dalton began to shiver, pant, not wanting to eat, and he began dribbling too. He seems quite almost disoriented at times., and wouldn't use the doggy doors at all. VERY slowly he is getting better, he will take a few bites of his noms, then *she* has to feed him with a spoon. He accepts it, and doesn't vomit afterwards. Yesterday he took several bites of his regular food...and he even scarfed down a large treat at the pet store. After several doses of a homeopathic remedy for 'tinkles', and another for UTI's, he isn't incontinent anymore, and he is even using the doggy doors again. Phew. Now to get him to eat properly on his own again.
If this continues for much longer, he'll have to visit the vet again, where we'd been on July 27th...
Benji is fine, so if anything happened from that dead tree rat, he was not affected. Of course he is a lot younger and larger than Dalton.
Anyways here are our selfies for this week:

| Update: The folks at the POTP blog sent us this image, how kind! |
Paws and toes crossed that tree rat illness will pass quickly! Just think of all the treats you'll be forced to eat to catch up on what you missed, MOL. That would make me feel better for sure.
ReplyDeleteNow, those are lovely selfies, perfectly posed for the Sunday selfies.

Oh Dalton! We are sorry that you are not feeling well! Numeg got a hold of one of the moles that Jo Jo caught. Nutmeg found it in the junipers and chomped it. Mom noticed the smell. It was tough to get it away from her. But about an hour later Nuts was coughing and up it came. She did NOT feel very well for about a week! It has not stopped her from looking for more free food though! She found a dead burd 2 days ago. Mom made many HBO words and Jo Jo is persona non grata...We are purraying that you feel better soon! And that you don't eat dead things. Our Peep also feels for your Peep. Being on cleanup duty when we get sick is NOT fun. Our Peep says Your Pep should Keep Being AWESOME! Marvelous and Mom Barb)

ReplyDeleteI just read about Dalton's illness. It dopes indeed sound like some kind of food poisoning. Dalton, that's why it's best to select your fare from the menu prepared by your humans. They put a lot of concern into that, and know what's best. A swifter recovery to you, little one.
ReplyDeleteSending Dalton POTP and hoping it was too much partying and nothing more. Tigris, Styx, and Lanie too
ReplyDeleteI'm praying for Dalton. You both look good in your selfies, may you both be healthy and happy this week.
ReplyDeleteWe’re purring for you, Dalton, and hoping you’re feeling better soon. Best to stay away from those rats from now on.
ReplyDeleteFeel better, Dalton! You need to be 100% for your birthday!
ReplyDeleteGood heavens DALTON!! You will dog, you need to be careful!!
ReplyDeleteNice selfies. I will be praying for you Dalton. XO
ReplyDeleteWe're purring and praying for you, Dalton. We sure hope you are feeling all better real soon.
ReplyDeleteWe are so sorry Daltonisn't feeling very well, but you are giving him good care. We hope he is much better soon and can avoid the vet visit. But maybe he can help him feel better faster.

Awww, poor Dalton. Feel better little buddy. Wilson says to not try to eat those tree rats...they're nasty and make doggos systems very unhappy. We hope you are 100% asap.
ReplyDeleteI am praying now for Dalton and sorry I missed this. Love you Sweet boy and hope you feel better today. It might be someone poisoned the rat and Dalton tangled with some of the poison. Our sweet little hoot owl, died from eating a rat that was poisoned. praying now that God will heal you Dalton.
