Bowser needs Prayers ... Old Age is catching up ...

[Cinder & Smoke]

Bowser here, checkin in!

THANKS fur allua Prayers an Good Vibes ... Dad thinks they're *helpin*!

This mornin got off to a slow start --- Poddy Call an I had a hard tyme *crawlin* out
from under the edge of the BigBed ... Dad hadda gib me a Butt-Boost ta get
the ole Rear End up & attem.
But once I get UP - the ole Hop & Bounce got us to the front door ... diaper off ...
and I bounced down the steps all Rite-Side UP an in one piece!

The REALLY Amazin Part wuz I got back UP da 4 steps ALL by MYSELF!
Dad wuz purdy pleezed when he opened da door an I wuz RITE There onna porch!

I did some walkin around da howze today - lil not-so-steady at tymes - but
still movin!
Nudder SUPER nice day out - so Dad wanted to try anudder Hike - LOAD UP inna Bus!

Hadda get TO da Bus - it sleeps inna garage - UNDER da Howze ... DOWN da carpeted cellar STEPZ!
Dad wuz tryin to figger out HOW ta get me down ... sillie guy ... Piece-a-Cake ...
I just follow da Big Muttz like always ...lean over da top step an Here we GO!
Once da Frunt End gets started ... no stoppin ... da Back End jest *bounces* down till
we hit the bottom. (Trick is to NOT let da REAR End *pass up* da Frunt End
bout half way down ...
THAT getz "messy" atta bottom!)

I did need a Butt-Boost up onto da back seat ... but I've needed dat before sometimes.
OFF to da BigLake Park ...
Did some walkin onna grass - no Problemos at all!
We all <shuffled> around fur a good 45 minnitz - felt purdy good!

Got back home an hadda think bout goin UP the cellar stepz ... got a Butt-Boost ta get
started an made it to the top OK ... but da Bus Driver wuz a lil slow openin da door -
and after stoppin - I started *slidin* back down
A well-placed BigFoot put da brakes on till he *fumbled* da door open.

Tyme fur an Outie an then sum DINNER ... I think I'z havin Canned Steak again - YUMMie!

As fur Dis Idea >>>

Would he benefit from a little cart, like some paralyzed dachshunds use?

We been *lookin* at Cart / Doggie Wheelchair sites fur a kupple months now ...
We asked Doc B about em ...
He sed folks have "mixed impressions" bout em --- SOME Dawggies *LOVE* their Cart -
others are either afraid or never quite get the "hang" of drivin one.

Doc sez they just DON'T work well inna howze - too eazy to get *hung up* on corners
and furniture ... but onna paved drive or sidewalk / parkin lot ... lotta dogs can *ZIP* rite along!

I think we're thinkin bout gettin one!

ANNYhow ... THANKS SO MUCH fur Wurryin bout lil ole Me!
Nice to know ya gotz *FRIENDS*!!

Sending many prayers for Bowser.

I'm so heartbroken. What a lousy month for PTers. Poor Bowser with his bum bum and footsies.

I know this is a real stretch but any port in a storm. Have ya thought of acupuncture? It's suppose to have some amazing holistic powers.

*Sigh*. My head wires seem to get all discabooberated sometimes too. What? Me Old? Apparently so. Bundles and oodles of huggies and smoochies to my furry, fuzzy and skin buddies. Lots of prayers coming your way.

Thanks for the update Bowser boy We just want you to know that we're still praying real hard down here in Sunny Florida that you're gonna get better. We think you're one of the cutest and bestest boys on Pet Talk. We really love you. Please feel good and keep giving us those uppy dates!! Pet Talk prayers are a powerful force and we're hoping for another miracle

Thanks for the update Bowser!
Glad to hear you had a good day!

[anna_66]

Hey Buddy, nice to hear you all had such a great day and that you were able to pretty much get going yourself
Sounds like that cart may be just what you need to "zip" around. Hmmm wonder if Santa has one of those in his workshop

[Pembroke_Corgi]

Oh, no poor Bowser.

I'll be thinking of you and hoping you get more special dinners.

I did need a Butt-Boost up onto da back seat ... but I've needed dat before sometimes

I totally know how you feel Bowser. I have to have a Butt-Boost to get into pick up trucks and some cars!!!

Glad you are feelin a mite perkier! The cats say if you don't mind, they will keep their paws crossed for you too!!! Lots of prayers on the way from me too!!! We love ya little pal!!! (we are kinda fond of your Dad too).
