Kev unwell again
I am sorry I have been a little bit quiet lately, I have been under the weather since my ear was ripped in an attack by a Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Although I am well in myself, and not nervous at all, my ear has been infected continually since the attack. Last week I went back to the vet and they wanted to sedate me so they could clean my ear. But when they gave me an injection my heart rate fell to below 50 - a dog’s normal heart rate is around 150 beats per minute. Major panic to try and revive me, of course, and although I was conscious I was very lethargic for more than eight hours. Of course Mum and Dad were very worried about me, and Dad sat with me at the vet’s to make sure I woke up properly. The vet wanted me to stay there for observation, but Mum Dad and Nan gave me twenty four hour care. I was really unwell for more than 24 hours, and not eating, then Nan’s neighbour came round with a juicy Venison bone which was too tempting!!
