Got moaned at for having my dogs off the lead over Canvey Wick.

I *know* they should be under control but I don't let them off in many places and always stick them back on the lead if I see kids or anyone with dogs on the lead.

Unfortunately I always seem to bump into the same couple on a blind corner and they immediately rush to pick their dogs up as if they will be ripped to shreds.

This is my Dachshund cross Brownie. We adopted him in 2012 from the Humane Society in Oregon - I think he had been treated pretty badly as he was super nervous and his tail had been docked (might have been a good reason for that but I fear the worst). Not sure exactly what breeds he is crossed with (probably a Beagle is involved somewhere) or exactly how old he is (between 10-12), so although he will always be Brownie, his face is getting a little whiter. He really is a great little dog, and he was very happy with his Halloween bowtie.View attachment 16300

Took my boy to the vet on Monday this week fully expecting to lose him. He wasn’t eating or drinking and could barely stand. Five days later and $3k worse off, he is back at home and although not 100%, there’s life in the old boy yet. Made my year it has.
 
One of our cats had an eye removed last week. The vet noticed something in his eye, the specialist diagnosed cancer. Before he had the eye out they did a full scan to see if the cancer had spread and thankfully it hadn't.

He's now feeling a bit sorry for himself and he's wearing a collar of shame. That can come off any time now though.

The question my wife and I haven't answered is if the scan was a CaT or a PET scan.

Good news for your cat, I'll get your coat for the last sentence of the post.
 
Maurice the rescue cat has now reached 19yrs old and shows no sign of dropping off the perch. Normal routine now, get up around 6.30am scream for food, eat the lot and biscuits and drink the world's supply of water, then his dementia kicks in and he forgets he's been fed. Waits to be carried up to his bedroom as the stairs are just too tricky, uses litter tray as outside visits are too hard, waits to be put on bed and wants to be brushed. This routine is repeated around 5pm every day. He had his Well Pet visit to the vet last week, verdict - very healthy. We want a dog and he hates dogs so I might just leave him on a park bench somewhere, that would teach the little git.

This Taz, 18 months old. He was a rescue and is 50% Rottweiler, 25% Neapolitan Mastiff and the rest is a mix of Amstaff and Staffordshire Bull Terrier.

He wears a muzzle on walks because he picks up anything, including dead / rotting rats, faster than a human can react. Prizing his jaws open is an impossible task!

He'll eat anything and lives up to his name when he gets the zoomies.
