Marleys been back to the vets this morning after being on 2 weeks antibiotics for his bowel infection. Marley has put on 2.1kgs in 2 weeks which is good, his poos are much firmer with the hills food but still yellowish. Neil said he was pleased with marleys progress but this infection could take up to 6 weeks to clear so we have another 224 tablets, 4 weeks worth.......he hates them poor lad and im sick of sticking my fingers down his throat but they are doing him good so will persevere!!!

i'm really pleased marley is getting better , if mine are on tabs i just wrap them in boiled ham

Bless him, lets hope his progress continues

Good to hear his lord ship is making a good recover

Poor Marley having to take his tablets without a treat aswell
He must be a very good boy

Dont think my two would

Hope his infection clears up quickly

come on Marley, only another 4 weeks



hang in there handsome

Poor Marley even more tablets but at least he is on the mend.

Glad you've had some good news hun even though it sounds like there is still a fair way to go

aww bless his hairyness ....
fingers crossed this puts an end to his troubles hun

fred hates taking tablets ... so to stop him spitting them out or furking them out of meat or even clamping his teeth round my fingers i bought a pestal and mortar and i now grind them up into a fine powder, mix with water and tip through his clenched teeth ...works a treat

*Marley update*


marley has infected anal glands again he cant have antibiotics for that as he is on the tablets for his bowel. neil had to give him an injection as his bum was red hot. we have to take him 2 days before our hols to have them sqeezed again and then after our hols its looking like he has to have the op even though his poos have improved by 99 per cent the infection isnt clearing

Aww poor Marley,sorry to hear he has to have an op Judes
but hopefully that will put an end to his problem (Pardon the pun)

Poor Marley and poor you too hun you must be really upset as he was doing so well Like Jan has said though at the end of the day if he has to have the op then hopefully that will be this problem out of the way

Awww sorry to hear he will probably have to have the op the poor lad

I remember my vet telling me about it when Keira had problems it didnt sound nice

he improves while your away and the op isnt necessary

Aww poor boy I know its awful for you all and its such a shame it didnt clear up must be horrible for him

aww poor marley. i really hope the op isnt necessary
