Sending more {{{hugs}}} and prayers your way!
Jack continues to do fiine - he is showing no symptoms of anything bothering him. Which we are all glad of. He is just so sweet and loving. For some reason he seems to be getting more attached to me. Now he is the one to follow me around more. I went in the bedroom and locked the door to get away from the grandkids for a little while and who comes barking at my door - but Jack. He came in, came over for some ear rubs and then went to his bed and laid down. He is just a sweetie!
He knows you're *worrying* about him.Quote:

Life brings all kind of surprises. May Jack be one of them. Prayers to you guys.
i've been mostly off line for a couple of weeks, so i'm trying to catch up. gosh, this is sad to read about jack, but i'm really happy he's having good days, and knowing that the human mom is always gonna open the door to ear skritchies.
How's Jack man doing?
Still in my thoughts and prayers!
Ashley, thanks for asking about Jack and continuing to pray for him. He is doing very well. His appetite is good, he still sleeps alot but he also lets Tucker know when he is being a pest. We took him to the dog park last Sunday about noon and although we were there only about an hour, he got overheated and had a hard time with his breathing when we got home. So I think hot day dog park trips are going to be a thing of the past for him. He didn't do any running - just his usual slow walk around the park sniffing everything along the way. The gasping for air was very scary. I should have called the vet to find out what they think but haven't.
I hope you are doing well up at the cabin. Is Jack back with you? I think it would be lonely and scary to be up there all by yourself.
It's good to know that Jack is doing well now. That sun & heat is really
miserable to be out in for long. Even our breezes are hot air.:(
Take it easy Jack. Cooler weather is bound to come.:)
Diana & Family,
Jack is Still in Our Thoughts and Prayers....Sounds like Mid-Day Dog Park is too much...Maybe early in the morning or sunset....
I am Glad to See that Jack is Comfortable
Give Him a Treat for Us!!!!

I just wanted to let you know that I will keep praying for Jack...please give him lots of love from me.
Just checking in to see how dear Jack is doing
Jack is doing great! He is still eating well, sleeping well and for the most part acting well. He does have a lot more trouble with the heat than he ever has before so we have to be careful how long he is outside but that is not really hard since he barks when he wants back in - it's just that sometimes my husband has selective hearing and if it isn't coming out of the TV or he has to move to take care of it, he doesn't hear anything.
It does seem sometimes even in the house, he is breathing harder - the vet says it is hard to know why - he could be feeling a little uncomfortable and that unless he is showing that he is pain there is little we can do. And it doesn't usually last for very long so who knows.
Since he has been eating better and since he had lost so much weight my husband has been feeding him a 3rd bowl of food at night. I have to wonder if this is a good idea because right now although the tumor seems to be pushing the colon over a little everything else seems okay. I am afraid if he puts on too much weight, it will make him uncomfortable and maybe more in pain. I hate it when dogs and kids are sick - they can't tell us what the matter is and it is hard to not know where it hurts!
Thanks for asking.
On a side note, Jack has always been a digger - he loves to dig a hole and then no matter how big or small he tries to lie in the cooler ground. Although sometimes I think he just digs to dig. He hasn't shown much interest in it this summer. I am working on a new "rock" garden and was moving some dirt around so I filled in one of his and his siblings bigger hole. Last night he was out by himself - meaning no other dogs - and I found him sniffing into the hole and starting to dig. He must be feeling a little better!:o
Darn it, Mom!Quote:

I can totally relate to this. The older I get, the less I tolerate heat.Quote:

Glad to hear he's eating well and I'd have to agree with you about not giving him the 3rd bowl of food for the exact reason you stated!
I'm also happy top hear that he was digging!
