Prayers for Jezzy
and for me. She's having a dental tomorrow morning. To say that I'm scared to death is an understatement. She's my baby girl, and I've heard too many horror stories of Min Pins and dentals to treat this as routine. We are doing the pre-op bloodwork and they are going to just gas her down...

Billy the Venturin e.c.s-YELL needs prayers & good thots
I'm just going to post this here first. Because we don't *know* anything yet. Billy's been acting just a bit punky lately -- not 'bad' -- just not up to par. Now it's hard to tell -- the pug is 8 months old and doing the "bratty teenager" thing. Billy's a great...

Good vibes please...
Mike made it from death's door to actually being transferred to rehab again, thankfully not in the same icky place as before. But, he gets understandably discouraged, knows he isn't as healthy as last time, and is strugglling with all of this in the hope that he can gain enough condition to undergo...

Keep Mr. Bear in your thoughts please
I posted a while back (July, I think) that Bear had a seizure. Bamaeskie posted the name of a really good book about canine epilepsy, which I bought and read right away. Since then, Bear has had a few more seizures, each about 3 weeks apart, so I wasn't panicking until last night. He started having...

Please pray for Willow tonight
She is doing well--really well, much stronger over the last two weeks. She even put her paws up on my bed to wake me up from a nap. I haven't even been sleeping in bed all summer because she couldn't do that to wake me until just this week. And, she's walking a little more too. So, overall...

Good Thoughts for Mask & Ash, Please
Mask & Ash's owner was brutally murdered earlier this week. Here's a link to my original post http://community.dog.com/forums/t/85396.aspx . They are not doing well. They are clearly mourning & very stressed out. Their foster mom contacted one of the local (Louisville, KY) TV stations...

If anyone can spare a prayer
He's already given me so much. I feel like I don't even have the right to keep asking Him for things. But, Willow's going for another blood test tomorrow. If her platelets have remained up on this dose of Prednisone they will lower it again. This has been very hard on her and really hard...

this old Pug - the saga continues
I was at the shelter yesterday walking dogs and this little old man touched my heart. He didn't have a name, but was a stray brought in and he has some medical issues. I spent a little time with him - it seemed to hurt for him to walk, but he definitely wanted to cuddle. He was scared and whimpering...

One of us needs some support (Callie)
I just got off the phone with Bonita - due to some truly unintentional problems and circumstances she's not able to be on I-dog right now and she asked me to tell anyone she may owe correspondence or 'help' that she's promised that she can't access the forum and apologizes to one...

Prayer Request (jenn52)
I know I really don't know anyone around here, but I read all the threads, even if I don't chime in. So I feel a little weird asking for prayer here, but I feel at such a loss, I was hoping maybe you guys can say a few powerful Idog prayers for me. I just don't know what to do about my health...

Prayers again...
Hiro is not doing well at all.... I've been really quiet about it on here but he's going in for an MRI tomorrow. The poor pup can barely walk these days and on top of Nik's passing, this is just too much. Pray for all of us, please. Maybe in the future I can explain more. If you'd like...

Nik's health is failing...
My dear 12 1/2 year old sheltie girl is really having a hard time. I just would like some prayers for her and some prayers for me to do what is best for her. I can tell it's getting to be that time. :(

I think my grandfather likes to come back as animals....
So DH and I just came home from Maine, where we spread my grandfather's ashes on Sunday in a lake that my family has been going to forever. It was increadibly hard, but I love that he will always be a part of the lake, and his ashes were spread with the ashes of his last two dogs, so I know he is...

Prayers Welcome
My BF had a bad episode (reaction to medication that he has taken for a long time, just now his liver can't process as well) and is now on a ventilator and under sedation in CCU. One attempt to extubate him didn't go well. Some of his symptoms had subsided, which was a plus, but his heart rate...

One last long trip, one last great vacation
Jasmine 's prognosis has downgraded. They knew the cancer would metastasize and we had been hoping for brain , fearing bone... but my girl has never liked to do things the simple way. The cellulitis that we have been treating has gotten aggressively worse. Today I had my daughter run her back in...

Prayers for my grandson
My grandson is very sick; he's the youngest of our grandchildren and is 2. He started running a high fever a few days ago (104 to 105), acting like he felt miserable, and not eating. He went to the doctor on Wednesday and the doctor thought it was a bad virus; yesterday all he ate was one french...

I'm not sure where to begin
My friend and co worker called me tonight crying. She had taken her 13 year old daughter to the beach today for a fun day because it was her birthday. The kids were swimming in the water--which is the ocean--and the current pulled her daughter out and under. It's so horrible. But, she was deprived...

Some prayers and good thoughts please.
Missy, some of you may remember. She's become my mom's dog. She's with me right now while my parents are out of town has become very sick. She didn't all the day Saturday, which isn't abnormal, sometimes she just doesn't want to eat, it became a little more strange when she didn't...

I never post here, but....
My friend, Joanna, who gave Ena to me had another heart attack, today. They sent her back to work, yesterday, and I guess it was too much. I called today to tell her how cute Ena was, and see how work was going. She's in the hospital. They're doing a bunch more tests, in the morning. She's...

I don't usually ask... Update - 3 embryos transferred!!
but with the power of idoggers, I will this time. My sister really wants a child. They've been trying and have had no luck. They begin treatments to begin the process of IVF next week. I was hoping some idoggers could send prayers, good baby vibes and the like for her to have a successful treatment...
