Sorry to hear he has been poorly and I'm glad you were able to get an appointment for him. Did he eat some rice, how is he now?

Poor Ernie.  I’ve given Rory chicken and rice mixed with natural yoghurt before - might help if he isn’t drinking?

He wolfed down the rice & chicken. He was hassling me about 5 minutes ago. I thought maybe he needed to go out but instead he stood looking at the cupboard where the treats live. I think he's probably OK but I still haven't seen him drinking.

That sounds a good sign about the chicken and rice. I'd be inclined to mix a little water with it as well if he hasn't been drinking. Wanda sometimes won't drink (for example if she goes to the kennels which as a result we now try to avoid) so I routinely put water with her food so I know she is getting something to drink.

Ralph-dog is limping again.
I've bottled out of taking him to the vets today because he hates it, doesn't like the car anyway and a trip to the vets always makes getting him in the car for other trips harder. - and I'm not sure he could get in it
Last time (last month?) when he was lame before it went away overnight, this has now been over 24 hrs so if he's no better Monday I'll take him - when youngest is around to come and help me.
Poor boy, I'm thinking his hill-walking days may be over

Hope there's an overnight recovery RH.
We're dogsitting Hattie. So far so good, although she is a picky eater. We have worked out that picking up her bowl if she's walked away from it twice concentrates her mind

Phoebe got herself stuck in a bramble bush on Saturday. I had to rescue her. Phoebe is fine, I have a scratched head!

We're discovering the 'joys' of extricating brambles etc from an attractively shaggy coat - not something you have to worry about with a Lab
