  2. Hi again, I,m sorry I did not mention the reason for her being spayed.  Although I had considered this in the past, since we rescued Sophie 2 years ago,  the need became definent, after now homing another rescue dog, Theo. As Theo has not been done either, and we really dont want any puppies, we had Sophie done, rather than the male, as we have read all about bitches that can suffer later in life , if this hasnt been done.  We will be getting Theo done as well, so he cannot cause any problems to other bitches he might come into contact with, but for now it was Sophie that suffered. We have kept Theo and Sophie apart since the operation, but in the last hour, have reunited them as Sophie seems much brighter, and Theo seems to sense all is not completely well, and they sort of kissed and he left her alone to rest. Altogether now, ahhhhhhh.     I had assumed the pills the vet gave me for Sophie were routine, because of the op, but have since learnt that the vet found Sophie had an infection, and that is why she has the pills. So maybe in the long run we are lucky to have rescued Theo, so that we got Sophie done, and found the infection before it got worse. Did that make sense[8-)]  Anyway, thanks for all your advice and kind words, I cant believe how attached I have become to my Sophie, and to Theo already too, and to anyone thinking about getting a dog, please consider a rescue centre. Sophie, and now Theo have the most fantastic temperament, are loving and fantastic with my children.  If only I could have more[:)]   I will keep you informed about Sophie should anything happen, but once again , thanks
  3. My children arrived home from school 20 mins ago, Sophie wagged her tail furiously and they managed to coax her up, took her in the garden, and had a 5 min wander. Amazing!! She is now lying down again , but not sleeping and looks a lot better than earlier. She loves children,,, maybe i should have invited the local school around to sort her out We will be keeping an eye on her, but hopefully, she is feeling a little better and once she shows signs of eating, which my Sophie loves to do with a passion , I will feel much better. Keeping fingers crossed, Sue
  4. Many thanks for taking the time to reply. It is now 15.30 and she is no better today than yesterday, although she lifts her head to greet me now, and is taking water i am hand feeding her from a cup. I managed to get her to go out for a wee in the garden, but she was walking like she was still under the influence of drugs. We rang the vets a cpl of hours ago, and he insists it is normal, and to let her rest, but from the response of other people it would appear that this is not normal, and we are thinking of taking her to another vet , as someone advised on another forum, and getting a second opinion. I dont know if it makes any difference, but I was given tablets for her to take 3 times a day, which I thought was normal to do after the op, but the tablets are for an infection the vet said he found she had got, when he performed the surgery, so maybe this is why she is taking longer to recover. I will let you know anything else as it happens. Thanks again , from Sue and my rescue labrador x Sophie.
  5. This morning my 6 year old lab x had an ovariohysterectomie. At 6 this evening we picked her up from the vets. When they opened the cage to get her out, she fell onto the floor, completely blitzed out still, The vet managed to get her to her feet, and we got her into the car and bought her home. We put her in a quiet room away from the other dog, to let her sleep it off, but now 4 and a half hours later she is still very much asleep. I go to her every half hour to check on her, i gently call her name , but cant even get her to open her eyes more than a few seconds. Is this normal after having surgery this morning, to still be so out of it. I know its a huge operation, but am worried I should maybe be trying to wake her or, get her to move about a bit. Any advice please would be most welcome. Sue

  10. So has Mutley been rehomed???. Hubby and myself keep taking a peek at him, he is sooooo adorable. We already have a rescue dog, Sophie from S.P.A  near Cognac, but there could always be room for one more, specialy when there are Mutleys about [:D]

  12. I was looking at this site only yesterday, not for a setter , but there are hundreds of photos of puppies and dogs for sale throughout France, might be of some help? http://www.photos-animaux.com Just to help, click on the left side of page under vente, then chiens
  13. One of my favourites whilst searching for property was this site http://www.french-property.com/, just click on a department you want to look in, and each department covers many agents.
  14. Hi, Sue and Keith here with our two children son aged 9 and daughter aged 5. We moved to Thors near Matha just in dept 17, and  20 mins from Cognac. Would love to hear from anyone else with children around same age for occasional playmates and from anyone who would like to drop in for a cuppa and chat and vice versa.
