A case of the ick

Someone isn't feeling so well today. I don't know if it's the heat or he ate something that didn't agree with him or maybe a little of both.
When I came home from work today I didn't even hit the other side of the basement before the less than pleasant aroma hit me. Right away I knew that Duke had a case of the icks.

Poor puppy. Maybe I should take the day off tomorrow to stay home with my poor sick dog. I'm sure my boss will understand. HA yeah, right.

When Raider is not feeling well, I get the worst feeling. Maybe because dogs can't tell you what is wrong like a child can, but I know I get overly concerned. I imagine you feel the same way about Duke. Hope he is better real soon!

Oh no! Hope Duke feels better soon! I would think your boss would understand since it is for Duke afterall. Give him a hug from us!

Ann - go to my facebook group page - WESTIES HEALTH -- from ears to tail and post what's wrong with Duke - one thing is to give him 1/2 of a Pepcid tablet to calm his tummy. Check his gums to make sure they are pink and not grayish - if they are grayish get him to the vets ASAP. Try plain boiled boneless-skinless chicken breast with white rice. Use chicken broth instead of the water. You can also send me a private e-mail thru fb - just go to the group page - you will see me as the creator of this group.

Sending best thoughts your way - Katie

Poor Duke... him too? It must be the awful heat. Don't you wish for winter when it gets too warm?

I am sure you boss would understand if you tell him you have to stay in cos a family fellow is not well.

Our love to Duke. Hope he gets well soon.

Difficult when the fur babies get sick - they can't tell you what's wrong and there's only so much they can understand when you try to make them better...

As I've been known to say, "Eeewwwwww, doggy farts." Hope he's better soon.
