The booking system is now turned off for online bookings as while I’m there i won’t be able to access it to approve bookings.

Hi everyone,

Just giving you an update on Jack as I haven’t updated you all one since he came home last Friday.
He is doing ok. He’s getting stronger everyday. He’s started hydrotherapy and he starts professional physio this afternoon. His structure and posture have improved so much. He doesn’t feel like a ragdoll now when I pick him up and move him. He can hold himself up. He can sit up now on his own for a short length of time. The bad left front leg has feeling back in it now. That came back the day after coming home. He has found his bark again and is barking at every dog that walks past the house. He can stand with support. I can take the support away from his back end and he doesn’t collapse straight away. He lasted 4 seconds on Saturday. This morning it was 10 seconds so he’s improving and getting stronger. He has also started going to the toilet on his own which is a massive win. I was expressing his bladder for him for a week and he absolutely hated it. He would only let me do it when it was extremely full and painful. Which was around 20-24 hours without a p*e. But he’s going on his own now when I take him outside and is back to p*eing normally.

We are back to work. We have done a couple of short days just so I can see how he copes and so far he’s coped ok. He has been sleeping while I’m grooming and just has a little whimper for attention in between clients.
I have still got a list of clients to rebook. Which I should hopefully get you all in this week. Please bear with me. I’ll be messaging you all at some point today/ tomorrow. I will be working shorter days with gaps in between for a while so I can care for Jack in between clients.

To everyone that’s messaged asking to book your dogs appointment, thank you for being patient. I have a list and I’ll be working through that once cancelled appointments are rescheduled.

Thank you to everyone that’s reached out and checked on both me and Jack. It’s been an incredibly hard couple of weeks and we still have a long road ahead. But the good news he’s going in the right direction. He’s a little fighter ❤️

Hi everyone,

Just giving you all an update on Jack. He’s still in hospital. He should be coming home tomorrow. He has regained a small amount of movement on his right front and back leg. Still nothing on his left side but the vet is hopeful with time, rest and physio he will improve. He’s got a long recovery ahead and I think being home will help him as he hates being apart from me.

I’ve decided to take the rest of this week off as when he comes home we’ve got to get used to a new routine of physio and helping him go to the toilet. Hopefully will return to work on Tuesday. I will need to schedule appointments around his care so will need to have breaks in between each appointment. I will be in touch with everyone booked in for tomorrow and Saturday to reschedule sometime today.

Thank you all for understanding and thank you for keeping him in your thoughts

Hi everyone,

Thank you to all of you that have reached out this morning. Jack has had a mri and a lumbar puncture.
He has had a bad spinal stoke in his neck. His brain is fine and there are no tumours or signs of cancer. It’s the best outcome of all the bad outcomes. The recovery is now on him and he has a long road of physio and rest ahead of him. The vet said it will take 4-8 weeks before he will be able to/ or if he will be able to walk again. He said he has a 60-40 chance of a full recovery. He’s got to stay in for a few more days to have round the clock care and they are starting physio today.

All appointments for tomorrow will have to be rescheduled as I can’t concentrate as I’m too worried about him. I also don’t want to be halfway through grooming your dog and have to call you to come and get them as I may get a call to go to Essex if he deteriorates. I will have to take it day by day and see what happens.

Please continue to keep him in your thoughts. 🥰

Morning everyone,

I just wanted to give you all a heads up as I may need to reschedule appointments over the next few days.
Yesterday afternoon I had to rush Jack to the vets after he woke up unable to use his legs after a sleep. He is currently at Southfields emergency vet specialist in Basildon. He’s been admitted with a suspected stroke. He is currently paralysed from the neck down. He has no feeling at all in one of his front legs. He was stable over night but I will find out more this morning. If he’s stable enough they will do a mri to find out what’s happened.
Please keep him in your prayers that he gets better. I will update on here when I know more and if I do need to reschedule appointments I will be in touch with you all individually. He is my main priority at the moment so also I’m very sorry if you cal or message and I don’t answer. The next 24-72 hours are critical. And due to his age the odds aren’t in his favour.
