Great news, hopefully it goes well and we can get our visit in later this year. Also hope it means that cruise ships will start again for you guys soon Hi Sue. Yep, we open up for the double vaxxed on the 21st. Some states may ask for booster too (still being discussed) and Western Australia may not open just yet but good news finally for many including you. Our dog is going to love it, we are under one of the flight paths and he chases the planes from one end of the garden to the other as they fly overhead. Lol. Cruising - fingers crossed for a summer season starting this year in September - but it’s still very much a waiting game atm. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tramadol pills were taken for pain. Going to try and sleep now. Tomorrow will be action packed with two physical therapy sessions. I hope this is not too boring to people.

That also helped with tummy issues. Thanks, I’ll try the yogurt as well. Right now the vet suggested splitting his feeding to three times a day to limit the amount of food trying to be digested at the time. Also giving him probiotic treats. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare aussielozzie18 Posted February 10, 2022 #48005 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Photos from our Sunday walk. Nice loop walk from Wynyard to Barangaroo restaurant precinct, along the water to Barangaroo Reserve, past the fingers wharves at The Rocks, under the Harbour Bridge to Circular Quay where we hopped on the light rail for a short trip back to Wynyard. Was admiring the blossoms as we were walking home and this little guy popped up. 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About ten years ago, I was at a pet store with my (now gone) black Lab, Romeo. We went through the store, got what we needed, and checked out at the register. As I started to walk away, Romeo was just sitting there, staring at the cashier. Now, Romey was my "velcro dog" -- always at my side -- so I didn't know why he didn't walk away when I did. Then it hit me. I told the cashier, "You didn't give him his treat yet." She reached into the cookie bowl and handed him a treat, and then he got up and walked away with me, chewing as he walked. Never underestimate the value of a cookie. Sounds like Romey had you well trained as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His previous owners did a great job training him. I just wish I knew what they fed him. I’ve had him since October and I still haven’t found the type of dog food that agrees with him yet. I figured out to stay away from anything with chicken in it. He did better with salmon and rice, but still messy. Sensitive stomach food potato and egg didn’t do much better. Currently on grain free salmon and pea with a table spoon of pumpkin, so far so good. We gave our dog raw dog food for the last few years of her life. I don't know if it would help with your dog's issues, but we're convinced that it gave Scarlett and extra year or more. She also loved it. Chowed down every bit. We used the Sojo's brand but there are a lot of raw dog foods out there and I don't know if Sojo's is any better than the others. We had a great pet food store with a large variety of food in stock and a very knowledgeable owner. He recommended it for our situation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver is four and a half. Otherwise very healthy, it’s just the very loose stools about half the time. He has never thrown up. Luckily he only had one accident inside the house. His second night with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer a thin crust pizza. Our previous oven…old age…couldn’t get it hot enough to cook pizza…now with a new oven I’m ready to enjoy pizza again!!! I like the Palermo Thin Crust Pizza. I stick up on them when Publix have them BOGO Free. I’ll put the pizza pan in the oven while it preheats. Then when I put the pizza on it it gives it a nice crisp crust. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to take him to visit my mother who was having chemo treatments. As she got weaker he could absolutely sense what was going on…(perhaps sense of smell?) and he would adjust his jump up onto her bed. He would jump up so gently without jostling her at all. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
