Rare Disease Strikes Young Welsh Collie

Welsh collie Bryn (AKA Wonky Dog) battled to the very end and defied medical science, he was just 3 1/2 years young......

Life has been pretty hectic recently so the blog has been a bit slow....

Bryn seems to be coping quite well and his stamina has improved very slightly. Most days he will run around with the other dogs while they play ball and he self regulates when he's puffed out by laying down and watching. A few times I have had to pull him from a game and sit him out when his legs go all weird and unco-ordinated but in general he seems to be doing better than I had expected. He loves the sunshine and takes great pleasure in sunbathing in the carpark at the shop with trudy. A few days this week he has preferred to relax in the Lintran box in the fresh air with laddie rather than come inside the office. I like to spend as much time as possible with the dogs especially Bryn as his future is so uncertain so he has his own posh bed upstairs now but often migrates to our bed by morning!

We are off on our jollies next week with all the dogs to Pembrokeshire. A great dog friendly place set amid fields so the dogs will enjoy a holiday too. We will try to keep the walks shorter this time so Bryn doesn't get too tired and if I remember to take my camera there will be some photo's posted when we get back.
