SR6 What LD says makes sense.
Glad Wanda enjoyed the snow; Jet had a short walk today but 'gambolled' in the snow so much that he might just as well have done the usual distance. He's spent all night lying with his legs in the air looking happily relaxed. He'll sleep in his crate tonight.

Thanks for all your replies. Plain chicken went down well, no mess during the night, and nothing on her walk this morning. Hopefully on the mend but will keep on just chicken for another day.:)

Jet's blood and urine tests came back normal this morning.  "He got away with it" said the vet.

Good news Helegant and SR6!
And we all know, don't we, (and keep having to remind family members!) that boxes of Christmas chocolates need to be kept well away from dogs. Admittedly there was a Labrador of our acquaintance (sister's dog) who snuck upstairs one Christmas and snuffled out and ate, all the chocolates, with no apparent ill effects!

I wonder whether Labs also have more resilience based on their scavenging genes. Flossie "got away with" Christmas Cake didn't she?

She did indeed, and my sister's Labradors must have eaten their own body weight in chocolate over the years, but Floss' brush with kidney failure after the kilo of dried fruit has made me much more careful.

Well how ironic given my previous posts...
My Swansea sister sent my mum's Christmas present parcel here. I left it on the shelf still in its brown paper wrapping, thinking it was probably toiletries as that would be the most useful thing she could have sent.
Overnight Flossie checked it out. She found a box of M&S chocolates and of course, has eaten them all From the box it doesn't look as if there were any plain chocolates but mainly white and milk chocolates, so hopefully Floss will get away with it. I'm cross with my sister (mum doesn't eat chocolates any more, she'd have much preferred nice toiletries) I'm cross with Flossie (which is unreasonable of me) but most of all I'm cross with myself for not expecting Floss to filch and rip open a brown paper parcel. *Of course* that's the sort of thing she would do

Oh dear, poor Flossie. Hope she is OK. I still haven’t learnt with Rory - I’m always leaving things where he can reach them and assuming he won’t be interested because he hasn’t paid attention to them before (latest was a roll of Christmas wrapping paper which he ran up and down the stairs with, twanging it off the bannisters. 🙄)
