That's gorgeous!

So sorry to hear Rumely isn't doing well again I hope the new meds work!

Do you think that these are from the bear bait or just a coincidence?

 

[Goat Whisperer]

That is amazing! You have great talent

Sorry about Rumely
Hoping he does well on the meds!

 

[samssimonsays]

Thank you all.
He will be epileptic for ever from what the vets are saying. There's a chance he was epileptic and the vet feels that there was some sort of neuro toxin in whatever they got into that made it worse. Sadie is also affected but not severe enough to need medicating and hers seems to be triggered by things.

Any issues with the other pups?

Any issues with the other pups?

Absolutely none. And no sigh Ms or symptoms until they took off those two days.

He had three more last night. After the second I gave him three benedryl. After the third I gave him his other two. After reading Garrick found they have most of them in their rem state and he only has them after we go to bed. Only damn thing we could think of so I put him in kennel next to couch. Turned a movie I know by heart on and he didn't have anymore. He only has them when he's sleeping.... . I don't know what helped. If it was a fluke he only had the three and stopped after benedryl and a movie. But the movie also had music on the home screen when it defaults back to the menu after its over. I have no clue.

Poor boy & YOU. That has to be just terrible to keep going through it.

You are so unbelievably talented, truly your gift is directed straight from God's heart to your's. I will be taking a LOT of pictures, trying to get that special one to send to you. I am amazed how you capture the essence of the animal in your portraits. You are the best!

So sorry about Rumely, I hope he can reach a plateau where he levels off and doesn't get any worse. That "forever" diagnosis is not what anybody wants to hear. Praying for you and your family. And by family, yes I mean the animals too!

This is why I love it here. Yall understand the importance of animals. He is our "son" and this has been truly gutting to us to watch him go through. We are going to try to get yet another opinion this week sometime.... Next step will be a trip 4 hours away to the university but that will be a last resort.

Finished another work in progress.

And a better pic of the one I finished last night after it was sprayed and dried.
