 I don't Know if anyone will Remember my Topic of our "Lost Dog" way back in may But with the blue Collar Dogs ( she is unedr there.).jpg My "Lost Boy Shadow" Got out and chased some Intruders at Fiesta time.

He was only gone 1 (One night and Found his way Up to Valencia some 6 km away. Here he is coming HomeDog shadow with Mama.jpg Dogs Shadow coming Home.jpg Unfortunately he must have made a friend or two or just Drank Infected water or Food and over the last few Months has developed Distemper, Now he sits in a Segregated Cage Not very well having lost over 1/2 his huge weight, he is not in Pain and eating and Drinking, he is on daily Antibiotics and Immune Boosters and will start steroids tomorrow.

I am not going to post any Photos of him like this as it is too upsetting, The Vet says he is Strong in Will and he is making progress. We are all hopeful as a family and with well wishing Thoughts from our Friends here we will do all we can to save our Lad who had a character all of his Own, he has always been the Naughty and Noisy one who led our Guests to the Front door by holding their wrist in his Mouth. I miss him Sitting on the Terrace Steps with his Big Grin But that will come back I am so hopefully sure  Not a very nice thing maybe for a Topic but our Dogs are family and deserve all the thoughts and Help we can give them

 Thank You for Reading.

All the best Jack, living and watching a  friend change over the last few months must be hard when all you can do is watch.

That makes ALL the difference.  He'll be fine if you keep babying him.  Gaining weight is the magic charm in this case.  Now if the same could be said for my ex wife . .  . :shades:

I've been meaning to ask how he's doing. Good to hear that progress is being made. Fingers crossed!

Hope he's getting stronger each day. Animals are my one weakness, I hate to see them suffer but I'm sure he's in great hands. All the best.
