Pudding hasn't been well following our day out in Birmingham.....
He started nibbling at his back leg and he has obviously got something in there, but I have looked carefully and I can't find anything. He has licked it so badly though he has made a bald patch on one of his toes though, so Derek and I have been bathing it with salty water and disinfectant, and wrapping his leg in socks so he can't nibble it! Yesterday evening we considered taking him to the vets, but decided to give it one more day to see how it goes...fortunatly this morning he seems much more perkier, and in a better mood and he has just shared breakfast with me...he is now sat in the window waiting for "Nanny!"........
Last night on the phone mum asked if she could use the spa today as he back has been bad. I said ofcourse!! But the house is a tip at the moment so I had better get some housework done before she arrives at 12pm!! My spa is great for all kinds of aches and pains (including Derek!!) but this is the first time mum has actually asked to use it, so I think she must be bad. However, mum is a notorious hypercondriact and infact she is fitter than me!! But my spa does need a bit of work this morning before mum uses it at lunchtime. Last night, just before I got out of the spa I noticed some foaming and this usually indicates my water is not right, so I will have to do a water ph test and see what the problem is. Also I must top up the chlorine level and give it a run through, and all this while keeping an eye on my Pud to make sure he dosn't nibble that sock off!! All in all this will be a busy morning, but hopefully will be worth it. Our lunch is poached cod with chive mash and to cheer her up a bit more I have her favorite comiedian, Dave Allen on DVD!! Crikey!! I must sort some fresh towels also.........*zips off to do work*
