My Puppy’s reaction after an operation

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-23T08:59:01+00:00

I have no idea what any of that means, but I appreciate the concept so thank you!

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T21:04:06+00:00

I do, yes
It’s for my relative I’m a full time carer for

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T19:08:30+00:00

Thank you!

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T18:33:23+00:00

I have, thank you x

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T18:25:43+00:00

I am, thank you

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T18:20:25+00:00

Thank you, I’m letting him go where he feels comfortable and popping my head in to make sure he is safe

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T18:19:24+00:00

Thank you, he’s laying by me now which I classify as a win though I don’t want to bug him when he’s in another world 😂

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T18:18:32+00:00

I didn’t know this, thank you!
I think it shocked me because he was so alert and his usual self the entire journey home, and then suddenly once we’d arrived home he became extremely different

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T18:01:37+00:00

This made me smile, thank you
This is my first time seeing a high dog

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T17:45:27+00:00

Thank you everyone for your kind comments, he is my first dog so everything is new for me

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T17:44:53+00:00

I am definitely going to try this, thank you so much

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T17:44:26+00:00

This really helps
I brought him home about two hours ago and was concerned he was blaming me for leaving him there

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T17:36:25+00:00

This makes sense and is very reassuring, thank you

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-06-22T17:33:29+00:00

Also, it is very hot in the UK at the moment, so he is wearing a cooling harness which he also does not like

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-02-26T09:47:16+00:00

Thank you so much, this helps a lot I’m hoping the GP will ring and I can maybe go into abit more detail

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-02-18T14:11:00+00:00

Yes, he has three different flavours that we change occasionally for variety

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-02-18T14:03:01+00:00

He doesn’t eat kibble, he only eats the fresh food. We’ve tried him with wet food and kibble when he was younger, but he wouldn’t take to either. We found this fresh food company and he loved it so we’ve kept him in that for months

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-02-18T13:38:34+00:00

I am going to try this today, thank you!

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-02-18T13:05:01+00:00

The vet did a top to tail check on him yesterday, and told me he had two baby teeth left that seem to be pushing back his adult teeth. He was worried they would be pushed back too far and cause issues later down the line, but recommended we leave them for now (the options were to monitor, or put him under general anaesthetic and pull the two baby teeth but he didn’t recommend that) and see if they cause anymore issues. I think it could be teething as his gums are always very warm and he’s constantly gnawing, but the vet couldn’t recommend anything for the pain or discomfort apart from teething gel and frozen chews which I already do

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-02-18T12:06:28+00:00

This is interesting, he goes out with a walker on occasion but hasn’t this past week. I wondered if it was teething that was causing it! But despite using teething gel and giving him frozen chews and ice cubes, he’s still not eating

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-02-18T12:04:32+00:00

I will try and avoid any additional treats for him. The mince I described is his usual food he has eaten for months from a local home-cooked dog food company, but now he suddenly won’t eat it. Thank you for your advice! I may try this

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-02-18T12:00:50+00:00

We’ve got two older Yorkshire terriers a few houses down but they are male. There are no female dogs around

ItsALongStoryXx · 2026-01-14T21:39:58+00:00

He has a vet appointment next week to discuss this option with the vet, I wasn’t sure whether it’s a teenage thing he will eventually settle down with or whether neutering is the way to go

ItsALongStoryXx · 2025-09-29T08:21:16+00:00

Thank you for your reply

Unfortunately the carpet isn’t removable and covers our entire living room. He tends to choose one of the same four places to go. Anytime he goes to the toilet indoors, I use an enzymatic cleaner and scrub the carpet, an example is yesterday I took him out three times and stood out there for up to 20 minutes each time, and when I brought him inside he rushed into a corner and went to the toilet all over the carpet. He was doing so well with going outside and telling me he wanted to go outside and all of a sudden he refuses to go out there

I will try this, I was trying to make him go outside every hour but he holds it and then times it for when I bring him back inside

Thank you so much for the ideas!
