Little Miss Pickle

Good news! Pickle's surgery went well and she is expected to return home this weekend.



She has to have another operation in February but in the meantime, she's doing fine. Thank you for all your kind messages, they were much appreciated by Pickle and her family.

Pickle, a pip of a pup

Meet Pickle the Pocket Jack Russell. She's sort of related to Molly the Irish Terrier as she lives with Molly's owner's close family. Does that mean that she's Molly's niece? Or third cousin twice removed or something?





Now, I've not met Pickle in person but I've heard a whole lot about her from Molly. Poor Pickle has a portosystemic shunt which means that she has abnormal liver function. She is having surgery tomorrow at a top notch specialist veterinary hospital so we know she'll be well looked after. Pickle doesn't have a blog but I know that she reads mine when she's not getting into mischief so I'm hoping that you'll leave some pawsitive comments for her. We're all rooting for you, little Pickle!
