Say Prayer for Sunshine...

Most everyone here knows Cork and her Sunshine. Cork is on a birthday vacation at the grand canyon and I'm babysitting all the doggies. Sunshine has been ill for two days, spent yesterday and last night at Dr. Barry's. She is still not herself. I'm keeping close watch on her but thought a few prayers wouldn't hurt. Cork is upset that she is not here, but know that I'm taking care of Sunny as I would my Lola or Ricco. Keep Sunny and Cork in your prayers...

she has probably caught a cold running around with only a little hair instead of a coat of fur. Put a thick sweater on her and give her some chicken noodle soup.

Awww ... I was thinking of Cork yesterday when I saw her birthday pop up on the calendar. All the best to her and Sunshine. I know you are taking great care of that little doggie.

Get well thoughts for Sunshine.

I love Miss Sunshine.

She is so cute and sweet, hair or no hair. Get to feeling better very soon Miss Sunshine.

Sweet, sweet Sunshine. Get well soon. Lisa, I agree with SJ, warmth and chicken soup, good for her little soul!

No better this morning. Bad night last night. Have been up with her since around 1 am.. She can't walk up the stairs now so I have to carry her outside when I put her down. She just sits there...More like lays there. Trying to feed her and give her chips of ice by hand.

Strang thing is that when I put her down to lie on the sofa, all three other dogs circle around her. Lola keeps licking her face.

Does anyone know Cork's sister Linda who lives here? I know she is on the board but don't know her name or her phone number.

Rick Barry ran all the tests and xrays and said everything came back fine. I just wish cork was here.

Maybe she is depressed, missing her mommy.

I think that is totally it. Especially since the tests came back negative. Poor baby. That's so sweet about the other pups trying to soothe her.

Back to the Vet yesterday.....she wasn't doing well. they gave her a shot of cortisone in her back and neck, gave her some meds......she's back to her old self. So it seems that she may have twisted her neck or back. I'm sure MOST of it was anxiety due to Cork being gone for so long....but she's back to at least 80% Which makes me very happy
