Casper's diary IV - Hero is notti again :-D
Hoorey.... Hero has recovered and become the notti big brother again. After a week of the e-collar life, Hero is 'free' again! It was an extremely heart broken experience during the time when Hero was sick.
It was a nightmare to all of us in the family. Hero neither can sit nor lie down comfortably because of his wound. Mommy couldn't sleep well at night and she has to come home everyday to check on Hero during the lunch time. I know it was very tiring for her, but I am happy because I can see mommy! And me, of course, feel so sad because Hero didn't 'talk' to me, play with me or fight with me. I know he was in pain.
Well, well...... finally... finally, it is over now. Hero is recovered and back to normal and everyone in the family is so happy.
Thank you so much for 'get well soon' wishes from all the fur pal. Hero and Casper shall be back again. Merry Christmas everyone!
Before and after
Hero: Haha.. it's Casper time for the e-collar... Casper: Oh no..... Mommy, rescue me.............
Hero: Hurry up, don't make us wait for so long...Casper: Mommy, mommy... faster la....................

Casper's diary III - Hero is sick
15th Dec 2007 (Saturday)
Mommy didn't sleep well again last night. So was Hero. Mommy put the collar on him. Hero was unconfortable with that and could not 'fully' lie down side way to sleep. At 6 am, mommy woke up to check on Hero, she found that Hero was not next to her bed, he was about 1 feet away from the bed with his head facing mommy's bed. His head was not lying on the floor, he was not sleeping. I don't know if he sleep last night, because I stayed at a corner far away from him so that he could have his 'space' for resting.
Poor Hero, mommy took off the collar and he started to lie down and sleep.
It's 1pm now. He is still resting, in the living room with mommy and ma ma (mommy's mommy).
Mommy is very worried, Hero didn't go to toilet to pee for more than 24 hours... while his eating and drinking is normal, may be he was drinking less water than usual. Mommy will continue monitor and see if she need to take Hero back to the vet.

Casper's diary II - Hero is sick
14th Dec 2007 (Friday)
Mommy didn't sleep well last night. She tried to monitor Hero so that he would not over-lick his wound. Mommy tried to put the collar on Hero, but Hero could not sleep with that. So, mommy decided not to let Hero wear it, but to keep on the monitoring.
At 10am, mommy made a phone call to Dr Lai Chong to confirm on the location of the vet clinic. Then mommy confined me in the play pen and took Hero to the clinic. I was nervous because I have not been alone at home since I was a puppy. I waited for about 1.5 hours before mommy came home with Hero.
Mommy told me that, she didn't see Dr Lai Chong, instead another vet called Dr Marvin. When she entered the clinic, she thought Dr Lai Chong was the onli vet in the clinich and didn't mention she wanted to see Dr Lai Chong. So, she was lead to Dr Marvin.
Dr Marvin asked for a lot of information about Hero before the examination, from his food to his medical history and record. After the 'diagnosis', he also concluded that Hero's anal gland was ruptured. Dr Marvin preferred to go for the treatment option without the anesthesia to clear off the infection. Anesthesia would be his last option if Hero could not cure within 2 weeks. Mommy felt such a relief when she knew this.
For the rest of the 1 hour, mommy worked together with Dr Marvin to clean Hero's wound. Mommy have to let Hero to put on the muzzle because when Hero got scared, he would growl and tried to bite the doc. Mommy carried Hero with one had around his weist and one hand to tighten the muzzle. Dr Marvin shaved the hair around the anus and the wound in order to proceed to the treatment. I think this would be the most difficult 1 hour in Hero's life.
Hero was given the antibiotic, anti inflammation, prebiotic pills and the iodine liquid. He has to be on medication for 2 weeks.

Casper's diary I - Hero is sick
13th Dec 2007 (Thursday)
Today was mommy birthday. It was supposed to be a happy day for celebration. But Hero fell sick. His left anal gland burst! He pood a lot and the wound was bleeding. When mommy reached home after work at 7pm and found out Hero's condition, she got so panic. I knew mommy was worried, and me too. I could not doing anything to help, so I just be good boy, behaved myself so that mommy need not to worry about me.
Immediately mommy called the vet near our house, told the vet about Hero's condition. She was about to close and she was so kind and agreed to wait for us. After the examination, mommy was being told that Hero need to be on general anesthesia in order to clear the infection. Mommy wasn't sure is this the treatment she should choose for Hero. However, mommy make an appointment with the vet on Friday morning for the 'surgery'.
After leaving the vet clinic, mommy called few of her friends and seek for opinion. Finally, mommy decided to take Hero to visit another vet, Dr Lai Chong, the vet whom Jiro visited last time.
