Poor Clio
 

My little dog has picked up the Parvo Virus and is seriously ill in the vet's clinic. They won't let us see her and we have to wait until nine-thirty in the morning to check on her progress.

The last bulletin was 'no better but no worse' and tonight will be crucial.

Please think of her xx

Re: Poor Clio
 

Sorry to hear that, Junetta. :(

Must be very worrying for you. I really hope she gets better soon.

Re: Poor Clio
 

I hope she gets better soon.

Re: Poor Clio
 

Oh June hope she is okay that is a horrible virus.

Re: Poor Clio
 

Awwww poor love xxx

All my love, and best wishes for a speedy recovery!!

" get well soon Clio " :(

Re: Poor Clio
 

Re: Poor Clio
 

I do hope so Bonnyboy. The waiting is worse than anything and they won't let me see her.

Thank you all for your good wishes and I'll post as soon as I have news xx

Re: Poor Clio
 

I really hope she is better soon xx

It is awful waiting for news................... I look forward to reading that she is a lot better in the morning. :)

Re: Poor Clio
 

Re: Poor Clio
 

I too have a litle girl called clio(English bull terrier) so my thoughts are with you right now. Please don't forget that this thing IS curable...my mamma had a dog quit a few years ago, and with good help it pulled through.

God bless.:)

Re: Poor Clio
 

I hope all is well for you June and that Clio is soon back to her normal self.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you tonight, for a good result.

Re: Poor Clio
 

I really hope you find her starting to get better tomorrow June. x

Re: Poor Clio
 

Re: Poor Clio
 

I really feel for you......I don'tknow what I'd do if my little dog got it, it is a horrible disease...........but the vets are pretty good, all that you can do for now is hope that all goes well...


good luck I really hope she pulls through...

Re: Poor Clio
 

i hope the news is good today junetta, bless her,


polly i hope your little one gets well soon too.

Re: Poor Clio
 

Really hope it is good news for you chick i really do

Re: Poor Clio
 

Any news? hope she's OK

Re: Poor Clio
 

She got through the night and they let Brian in to see her this morning. There is still a long way to go but things seem a little more hopeful today. As soon as she can go for twelve hours without vomiting they will start to feed her. Then it all depends on how badly her stomach lining has been affected.

Fingers crossed and thank you all xx

Re: Poor Clio
 

That is good news June!!

Re: Poor Clio
 

OH that is good......

Still keeping my fingers crossed for you all xxx

Re: Poor Clio
 

Thinking of you Junetta...and poor Clio.....I hope she gets better very soon.

Re: Poor Clio
 

so sorry to hear about your dog...
I have 3 of my own and I would not want mine to get it as I know exactly what happens to the dog etc..I hope the vet was honest with you regarding this but can I ask why your dog wasnt vaccinated given its mainly un vaccinated dogs that catch it?

I dont want to be shot down in flames here - just curious to know..

Re: Poor Clio
 

oh june I hope ya little doggy gets well soon!

poor little mite:(

Re: Poor Clio
 

Glad she's fighting, bless her.

Thinking off you.

Re: Poor Clio
 

Iam so sorry to here a bout your dog i do hope she gets well please let us nowe what go,s on we are all praying she will be o.k.

Re: Poor Clio
 

She'd had all of her jabs which makes it all the more shocking. The vet did blood tests which proved that she had contracted the virus. She also said that she could have picked it up anywhere. Do bear in mind that the Spanish don't have the same principles as we do as far as animals are concerned and it's probably true that most of their dogs aren't vaccinated. Clio loves to play and has contact with quite a few dogs during her day.

It isn't going to help going down that road and I have another sleepless night to look forward to. I'm just hoping that I can cuddle her lovely silky body, sometime soon.

Thanks again for your kindness xxx

Re: Poor Clio
 

Some friends of mine had the same with their dog June. It had all the jabs then like Clio contracted parvo. The dog got better, so just stay positive and I'm sure all our prayers will be answered.

Re: Poor Clio
 

Awwwww good luck June xxx I was reading an article today, it said the first 3 days are crucial!! and she has come this far!! xxxxx keeping everything crossed for you!!

Re: Poor Clio
 

ahhh bless i hope she is okay i know how it feels my dog recently had parvo but he pulled through luckily youll have to let us know how she is doing

thinking of you clio xxxxxxxx

Re: Poor Clio
 

Brian just rang from the vets and the news is really good. Clio is so much better and should she keep improving we can have her back home tomorrow.

You wouldn't believe the relief!

Re: Poor Clio
 

that's great news june...you'll be like a little kid on xmas eve when she comes home :)

Re: Poor Clio
 

AWWWWWW that is seriously great news!!!! bet ya can't wait june. :)

Re: Poor Clio
 

Really glad to hear that.

Re: Poor Clio
 

Great news June, I bet you can't wait to get her back home again.

Re: Poor Clio
 

Gladto hear she's on the mend. Bet you can't wait to get her home.

Re: Poor Clio

Re: Poor Clio
 

Awwww June im so pleased she,s on the mend love ..

Re: Poor Clio
 

Glad to hear she's getting better June.

Re: Poor Clio
 

Re: Poor Clio
 

She's home!! We had to wait until early evening as the vet wanted to make sure that she could digest solids as well as water. She's a bit shaky and not having seen her since Friday, I can't believe how thin she has become. We have some special food for her which she needs to take in small doses at regular intervals. It's back to the vets tomorrow morning for more antibiotic injections and she's been grounded for the next week or so.

My daughter checked out the websites and advised a thorough cleansing of our apartment.........the vet agreed and we've been up to our elbows in disinfectant all day. The washing machine has been on all day too.

All her toys had to be thrown out, but I did buy a couple of new ones for her and I'm sure she'll be interested in them soon.

I'm so thankful.

Re: Poor Clio
 

Re: Poor Clio
 

Thats great news June

Onwards and upwards :)

Re: Poor Clio
 

That really is great news June perhaps you will manage a good nights sleep now she's home!!

Re: Poor Clio
 

That's really fantastic news.:)

Re: Poor Clio
 

i hope she is feeling better tomorrow bless her. it must be so heart breaking as our pets are like children to us. we have a spaniel he is nearly 10 yrs old and a big softy.

Re: Poor Clio
 

So glad Clio is back home and doing well........now that she is back with you she will come on in leaps and bounds :D :D :D

Re: Poor Clio
 

Re: Poor Clio
 

im well glad shes back home and doing well i agree that she'll be bk to her old self now shes bk a little bit of t.l.c. no doubt love kath

Re: Poor Clio
 

im so glad she is back home. bless her

Re: Poor Clio
 

Fabulous news. :)

Re: Poor Clio
 

Thats brilliant news.

Re: Poor Clio
 

It wasn't too good today. She had to go back to see the vet and have three more injections. I'm glad that Brian took her as he said that she screamed. Poor little mite.

Hopefully, they are the last and tomorrow she gets her drip needle out and a course of tablets. I just want to feed her up and give her a much needed bath..........but, slowly, slowly.

She would say hello and thank you but she's sound asleep on the sofa. Maybe later x

Re: Poor Clio
 

oh june im so glad she's home give her a cuddle from all her accyweb friends ....(when she's not as sore)x x x

Re: Poor Clio
 

Have been doing a Margaret and googling this one .. gosh, Junetta lucky escape or what ... :not_ripe:

Sounds horrendous .. thing I noticed is that Clio can be infectious for a further two months, so best to keep her away from other dogs for a while.

She must have been really suffering .. take care of her .. x

Re: Poor Clio
 

Just a matter of time and loads of cuddles (sure she gets plenty of them anyway) :D Just keep doing what your doing, it's working.....please keep us updated with her progress........

Re: Poor Clio
 

Glad to know Clio is getting better, My Labrador Bitch Amber had this when young. A good tip is when she's eating solids again boil some rice with garden peas, just as normal, she will love it and it is good for re-hydration after this type of illness. And of course plenty of TLC. Good Luck.

Re: Poor Clio
 

It's great that she is back home!! :D Really chuffed for you June

Re: Poor Clio
 

As she was sick again yesterday it meant another course of injections this morning. I think that we have turned a corner since then though. She's attacked the mop and given her teddy some grief.............she's been eating a little.

I daren't be too complacent but it is looking good. Let's hope that tomorrow will be even better xx

Re: Poor Clio
 

So pleased to hear that she is on the mend.......onwards and upwards from now on :D :D

Re: Poor Clio
 

I really can't praise the vet enough. Clio is almost back to normal and has been given a clean bill of health. She's very skinny but is eating and drinking as normal.

No walks for quite a few weeks but that isn't a problem. Fast asleep on the sofa! Her dad spoils her rotten!

I'm thinking of taking a box of choccies into the vet clinic tomorrow but don't really know if this will be acceptable........what do you think?

Re: Poor Clio
 

If you think the vet has given good care to Clio, do it.

It's a nice gesture.:)

Re: Poor Clio
 

I would take a box of choccies in June.

When I was doing care work, it was always soooo nice to receive a
" Thankyou " box of choccies off relatives families.:)

Great to hear she is doing so well :)

Re: Poor Clio
 

Thanks Rindy and Slinky...........I was thinking on those lines too but 'im indoors thought that it might be a little over the top.

I'll go for it tomorrow and let you know.

Thanks for the support everyone. It really did help to be able to write things down and to know that so many people were behind us.

Lots of love
June, Brian and Clio xxx

Re: Poor Clio
 

June........So glad that Clio is almost back to normal, and I think the same about showing your appreciation to the vet by taking some chocs in...go for it I think they will be chuffed. :D

Re: Poor Clio
 

Re: Poor Clio
 

I bought a box of those posh things that they have at dinner parties...can't spell it! Will drop them in over the weekend.

As for Clio......she's gone from death's door to being an absolute pain. Nothing is safe at the moment. One broken ashtray, phone wire ripped off the wall and she's eaten half of my book!

Back to normal and it's so lovely.

Re: Poor Clio
 

LMAO ...... she has a lot to make up for :D

Re: Poor Clio
 

Awww june im so glad that clio is back in good health . :)

I bet your on cloud 9 atm . think the chocs are a great idea . .
oh well!!! back to the devastation lo:eek:l enjoy:D

Re: Poor Clio
 

Just to show you how far Clio has progressed during the last couple of weeks. She has gained more than two kilos in weight and the vet is well impressed.

They loved the choccies too!

Re: Poor Clio
 

Thats great news, she obviously is doing really well, her coat is so glossy

Oooo I do love happy endings :D

Re: Poor Clio
 

well chuffed for ya june, :);)

Re: Poor Clio
 

She looks like one clever dog June using the computer:D So glad she is doing well!!

Re: Poor Clio
 

That's good to hear June. She looks well and lovely shiny coat. :)

Re: Poor Clio
 

So glad to see that Clio is doing so well.....what a lovely dog, she looks brill, bet your chuffed to bits. :D :D
