Mal caught the train into work and after walking Ellie, I took her to the vets for her X-rays and of course she had to be anaesthetised . Not keen on that at her age but we need to find out if she has any problems with her legs.

She was not impressed with no breakfast but was fine in the vets and the nurse came out and played with her, made a real fuss of her before taking her through and she was still wagging her tail. What a difference this vets is to the last one I went to. They also sent me messages during the day reporting on how she was. The last one saying that she was awake and gulped some food down in one……that’s Ellie!

Claire, the vet came out to talk to me when I went to collect her and she told me she had been a “star patient” and was very calm listening to classical music!! Her X-rays are now being referred to the orthopaedic surgeon but she can’t see anything drastic, thank goodness. £750 for todays treatment! A good thing we have insurance.

I brought her home, of course she was looking for food, I could only give her a little after the anaesthetic and of course she was still drowsy and just wanted to sleep.
