Title: It never rains
Post by: too many girls on December 04, 2009, 10:07
but it pours,
 when i got my shopping delivered last night (by an extremely good looking young man :blink:) he very kindly popped a bottle of white rum in with the groceries ( i swear i didn't order it :D or the coke for that matter) anyway, not wanting to offend Tesco's i had made quite a healthy inroad into said bottle by 11pm, Pip was putting the puppies out for their pre bedtime wee when she found Panda very ill, she couldn't walk and was very disorientated and then she started to cry with pain, it was obvious she needed a vet and quickly, having had a drink i knew i couldn't drive so i sent Pip to find my dad only to discover that he'd been making his own healthy inroads into his homemade wine, so then she rang her dad (why? he no longer has a license because of his own unhealthy inroads with alcohol) anyway i heard her yelling down the phone "the puppy's ill and everyone's drunk" :( so her dad rang for a taxi while i rang the vet, the taxi got lost but eventually found the farm and we met him at the gate, during the journey Panda passed away (at least i thought she had, i couldn't wake her and we were very upset by the time we got to Barney) the vet examined her and said he still had a pulse but it was weak, err he? he looked at me and said "had the puppy been drinking alcohol? i  assured him he hadn't as i don't share my rum with anyone never mind a puppy, i had pre warned him on the phone i was 3 sheets to the wind and that was why i couldn't drive but actually i wasn't that bad, however she/he had been in the bin and eaten a tea bag, he kept him in and told me to ring in the morning,
    Panda is still with us but they are keeping him in because as yet they don't know whats wrong with him, i'm to ring again at lunch time, i have apoplogised to Pip and said if i knew the puppy was ill i would never have had that rum......................

I didn't know anything about this  panda pup.  I reckon she snuck him/her in when we weren't looking... ;)


It's not the rescue Collie is it Rom...? If so I want pics 8)
Title: Re: It never rains
Post by: too many girls on December 04, 2009, 17:41
it is the rescue collie pup and he's home now, the vet thought he had been poisoned, he had been in the bin last night and pip and i went through the bin and listed the contents to tell the vet, result? don't let puppies eat pickled eggs :D
my dad and i had been arguing over ownership of Panda/Snoopy, my dad wanted to call him Panda but i wanted Snoopy, he says he found him first but i said i look after him, feed him and pay for his food, when i got back from the vets i asked my dad "whose dog is this?" he replied "mine" oh ok then and i gave him the £150 vets bill :D :D :D

I am so glad the pup is doing better and that you have found a home as well for the vet's bill. I also agree with others that you should be writing for a living, you more than outclass many so called comic writers that get into print.

I have just seen this post!panda is just the cutest puppy ever(and actually suits panda more than snoopy-sorry)...im so glad he is on the mend, you must have been out of your mind with worry!Dont beat yourself up for having a drink, you cant 'never' have a drink just in case something happens to someone...
can i ask what is in pickled onions that make them sooo ill...i mean oviously its not the best diet for a dog, but i would never have thought they could make them so ill. Hope he is back to his usual self soon xx

Post by: too many girls on December 04, 2009, 20:35
very small puppies, Panda is only 6 weeks old, we've had him nearly a fortnight, i didn't want to take him away from his mother until he was 6 weeks old at the earliest, but the last time we went to see him they'd shoved him in a box in a shed, his mother couldn't get to him so we brought him home there and then :(

and Archie makes 3 (dogs that is)
Archie? your not thinking of chasing Damien are you?

(http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm134/Toomanygirls58/000_0059.jpg)

what we (as humans) have failed to realise is that my bed isn't really mine at all, it's the dog/cat/chickens bed, only need casper, Harvey and Carrie and there's no room for me.
Title: Re: It never rains
Post by: Caralou on December 04, 2009, 21:25
Carrie is so tiny she doesnt take up much space at all :) I have to admit the pup is so cute and lovely, and thats from someone who isnt a collie fan (we lived next to a really nasty one when I was young and it has left me distrustful of them). Hope Pip feels better soon, she does look a little unwell there  :(
Title: Re: It never rains
Post by: too many girls on December 04, 2009, 21:33
she wasn't so unwell that she couldn't drag herself out of bed to make a bacon butty before returning to bed to eat it, thank you Pip  ??? i am now going to be sleeping not only in dog and cat hairs but tomato sauce too :mad:
Title: Re: It never rains
Post by: Parsnip on December 04, 2009, 21:47
Oh Rom...I'm in love again, she looks even more gorgeous than I expected.. :) :)

Now then answer me this,  is Panda a girl or a boy and how come there was confusion?? I mean, girl and boys have different bits dont they? :unsure: :tongue2:

I bet there is never a dull moment with all those animals and you.. ;) :D
Title: Re: It never rains
Post by: too many girls on December 04, 2009, 21:52
Panda is a boy according to the vet, when i first picked him up to look he screamed his head off so i only got a quick glance as i was worried the mother dog would have me :happy:) we've not really taken much notice of his bits, in my defence i will point out that if he is indeed a boy he's got no pebbles.....................
Title: Re: It never rains
Post by: Parsnip on December 04, 2009, 21:56
Ha ha ha ...just aswell he's called Panda it can be a girl or boys name... :D

He's adorable.  He's got blue eyes and everything I want him... ;) :D
