The first sunny and hot weekend of the year and we won't be going to the boat. Instead we will be spending time in Sheffield with family and new recruit Sydney.
Sydney was a star at the vets yesterday evening. He was very well behaved and didn't complain when he was prodded and poked and given a none too flattering shave to a section of his bum!
He was found to be in relatively good order considering what he has been through. He needs to put on about 1.2kg which is about 25% of his current weight!
He has a cat bite to his bum which is sore and itchy so he has some antibiotics to take for the next week to help clear up any lurking infection. Other then being smelly, which the vet assured us was cat smell not dog which will just take some washing off but should eventually fade away, he was not in too bad shape and will be a different dog with some love, attention, a few baths and some proper meals.
Thank you for giving Sydney a chance. I get very upset when I hear about what some people have done to animals. We can't have a dog, but do have a rescue cat and she has brought much joy to us. I am sure Sydney will repay you with love and devotion.
