kenley has just been to the vets .

When i got up this morning Kenley wasn't his usual self :(
There wasn't the usual running round the bedroom like a lunatic banging the radiator ,wardobes and cabinets with his tail as he tried to wag it off.

He refused to go for a walk then he refused his lunch so off to the vets we went .
His temp was very high and his glands were up in his throat .That had me panicking :(

The vet tried to open his mouth and he wouldn't let her anywhere near him so he had to be took in for sedation .
We went to pick him up and we got told he has a 5cm hole just above his left tonsil .It's very deep and needed 4 stitches to close it up.
Vet thought it was a stick injury but i informed her it was infact a whale bone injury :roll:

Kenley is now in bed feeling very sorry for himself . :(

I think you know more than most why i panicked Kathy :(

We had a live sperm whale washed up last week that unfortunately didn't make it back out to sea .A PM was done on it whilst on the beach :cry: Trust Kenley to find a bit they didn't clear up :x

Yes .A minute walk from the beach :D
Oh how frightening! So happy Kenley is on the mend.
Gawd how scary and a first too a dog and a whale bone 8O

Glad your baby is OK now. :ghug:
Wow, a whale bone! 8O

Around here it would be a deer rib bone I guess.

Hope Kenley is on the mend now...ouch!
I can just imagine the scare you had.

1 centimeter = 0.393700787 inches
Please tell me that it's millimeters instead. I'm going with millimeters
or I might pass out just thinking about a 2" wound in his mouth. :pupeyes:
Ouch... even that would be really painful. :(

Heal quickly, buddy! And no more running around with... whale bones!
:ghug: to Kenley. Glad he is on the mend-
Glad to hear he's on the mend!

It's cm's :(
bless him, so glad he's on the mend, i bet if you'd had a game of, "guess what my dog had stuck?" no one would have guessed correctly.
My poor lad discovered this morning he can't play with his toys yet .He picked one up screamed in pain and had a slight accident :(

He's wondering around the house at the moment whinging because he can't do anything.

He has managed his meal and 3 horse tablets :)

Oh baby boy :cry: It's no wonder he isn't playing.
I'd monitor him for fever a couple of times a day...
just to be sure it isn't getting infected and that the
antibiotic is working.
I am doing .His temp is up at the moment but vet said it might be up for a day or 2 .
According to the vet who did the op he has really cleaned it out as he thought they might of been something in the wound.
So :crossed:

He is sat looking out of the window at the moment watching all his friends play on the beach :(
Oh poor Henley. What a scare for you! Hope he feels better soon and can play!
Just me being the worrier! I try to catch things early before a problem can become an even bigger one. :oops:

Kenley says thanks for caring :ghug:

Plus he feels for Bumble :ghug:

On a good note he played with his duck for a few minutes without squealing in pain :)
:cry: :cry: :cry:
Oh poor little baby!
It is not fun when a kid can't play :cry:
He will be back to bouncing in no time!
Give Kenley a hug from all his friends across the pond!
