Our puppy got sick and passed away

alexevil67 — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 19:33:56 +0000

Last Friday we picked up our new puppy Louie. The kids had been counting down the days until we could pick him up and we all fell in love with him instantly.His first night in the house we left him in the kitchen, boy did he cry. We spent most of the night comforting him but around 5am he started to be sick.After this he wouldn’t eat no matter what I tried. I spoke to my Vet on Saturday who said he was most likely pining for his mother & brother Marley (who lives at my mums) - so I got my Mum & Dad to bring him round and he really perked up, ate a tiny amount of food, and had a play for 30 minutes.When Marley went home again he started to look really flat. Sickness came back, I couldn’t get him to eat, I nursed him trough the night and in the morning off we went to the vets. They kept him in but told me they didn’t think he would make it through the night. Which he didn’t.We are all devastated, I didn’t for the life of me think I would get so attached to something in 3 days. Thankfully Marley seems to be ok which is ruling out a virus, the vet thinks that he in all probability had a kidney defect.So the point to this post is that if anybody is searching for some info (like i was at 4am the other morning) then hopefully they may happen across this and get him to the Vets sooner, don’t think that they are pining go and get your pet checked out at the Vets as soon as you can.I wish I had when he was first sick.God bless Louie, we all love you so much.John, Angela, Charlie, Kieron & Lola.xxxxxx

What type of dog is this?

John — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 01:26:52 +0000

I like dog’s better than cats.

This dog smokes which is not big and not clever.

He does look cool though.

Way of the Ninja

John — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 19:20:53 +0000

When I was 9 I was obsessed with Ninjas.

I suppose this was due to watching a lot of Monkey Magic (no wonder I was warped see below) and also steeling my dad’s video collection watching the likes of American Ninja and Several Chuck Norris (what a website) films on VHS.

In the summer of 1987 I converted my dad’s garden shed into a Ninja weapons store. I made all of the weapons myself which included throwing stars (shurikens) made out of baked bean can lids, nunchucks, bo staffs, swords and kind of long nunchucks but in three sections (I think I saw this in a film). All items where impressively wrapped in black insulation tape for added authenticity.

It was a very impressive weapons cache.

So I would like to add a ninja suit to my list of ‘things I would like to do with your cash‘.

Please give generously.

Top of the League

John — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 21:00:40 +0000

It’s been a good day all round today, had a great day at work and I also won my first 2 matches in the FIFA 08 league on the Xbox 360 that we play at work (read about it at daparky.com).

What’s even better about this is that I hadn’t beaten Dave before today (having come really close a couple of times) so he took some stick between work collegues this afternoon.

Roll on next match.

Stepping up the weights, building up the muscle.

John — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 20:56:18 +0000

Still waiting for my Maximuscle supplements to arrive but I have been reading an amazing booklet that I downloaded for free from the Maximuscle.com website.

I have been studying it closely and have started over the last couple of days to emplement new foods into my diet. For breakfast I have been eating porridge oats (looking forward to poached egg on toast tomorrow) a snack in the morning (banana, apple) and a late lunch at about 2pm (tuna or chicken sandwich). As today was gym day I also had sliced chicken and a couple of dry rivitas 60 minutes before my workout and for dinner tonight I have just eaten a couple of fresh tuna steaks, carrot, broccoli and cauliflower. I’ve got to say the past couple of days I have had even more energy to burn and feel better still.

Tonight I have upped my weights and boy does it hurt my leg’s felt like lumps of iron when I came out. I’m now doing 3 sets of 12/15 reps with several machines (also keeping to 20 minutes on the treadmill, I actually ran 3km tonight which I was really chuffed with) and I intend to stick with this for the next 7 gym sessions. I’m also mixing up my routine trying to do different excercises on each gym day (every other day). Last night I did a series of crunches which used new muscle groups but I dont want to over do it so will skip these tonight and tomorrow continuing on Thursday. Hopefully my supplements should have arrived by then.

My weight this evening was back down to 13 stone 7 and half pound which is a half pound loss. What is surprising though is that although the rate of my weight loss has dropped my jeans are still getting looser and I’m on the last hole in my belt (having dropped 4 holes since January). This is probably down to sticking to my healthier diet whilst building muscle. There is an interesting section in the booklet I’ve been reading which states if you just simply diet without excercise your body would rather burn muscle tisue for energy before it’ll burn fat. Imagine that, I don’t see the point no wonder it makes you feel pissed off and ill. Slimming World my arse!

I would recommend taking a look at the booklet it is available here.

I’ll keep you posted on my delivery. Got a feeling I’m going to be sore tomorrow.

John.
