I'm doing better and better, and M, our loving mommy, is obviously relieved, but she's too worried and sad about our senior dog.
The worst part is, we do not know what is wrong with her yet. She's in tons of pain. In the near past, the dog vet insisted that all the pain was rear end related, due to advanced arthritis and possible cruciate issues. M insisted there were neck issues as well. Her reasoning? Every time she passed by Linguini, the girl would cry out in pain. Huh? M tried to figure this one out for a long time. What was it that made the dog cry like that? Then she got it. Linguini would turn her head to follow M with her eyes. Aha! Now, M's convinced Linguini's pain is due to cervical and possibly neurological damage, but first she has to convince the vet.
We do love our vet, and, for the record and in all fairness, he's looking into M's theory. Only problem is, the tests so far do not back it up...
We may go MIA for a few days. If anything drastic happens, we WILL let you know. For now, we'll let the morphine do it's job.
Lots of love to all our furiends and friends!
Our girl
Twinkie, the humbled dog

What a bummer Twink. Crossed paws for Linguini.
Bart has a pinched nerve in his neck which causes him to cry-out. After two flair-ups, Mom has taken him for accupuncture. He's MUCH improved - Holistic Vets on Las Virgines in Calabasas...
You hang in there taking care of the family Twink and we will keep our Paws Crossed for Linguini!
woo woos, Tessa
And you KNOW that we have everything crossed here for both Linguini and you. Well, let's throw M in there too. We hope there will be some relief soon for Linguini.
Twink, we hope you are doing OK too - M could use some good news.

Oh I am so sorry to read about poor Linguini. My human granny suffers badly from arthritis pains all over, but especially in the neck, and we know how horrid that is. I do hope your vet can figure out what's wrong and find a solution.

Hi Twink,
We are new to your space and learned about you on Ronnii's bloggy.
My brother Grady and I are Newfies, and Grady has had very similar symptoms and pain. Mom used a canine chiropractor with wonderful results.
We are crossing our paws and sending powerful Newfie prayers in your direction.
Your new friends,
Leo, Grady and The Mom.
Oh no!
We're keeping Linguini in our thoughts!
Has your mom looked into acupuncture?
Oh, Twinkie. I'm so sorry to hear Linguini isn't feeling good. I'm keeping her and your whole family close to my heart.
Gentle wiggles & wags,

Just how much can one family take?
We have all 44 paws at our house crossed for Linguini. And good vibes and lots of Florida sunshine too.
Twink please tell Linguini to try doggie acupuncture. It really helped Mack to feel better.
