Red face Hi all

Hi, I'm new to site it looks really good. I was just browsing looking for reassurance as I have just returned from taking my beloved 10year old lab to the vet - after hours emergency. Looks like he's had a stroke, this on top of he's just getting late onset epilepsy under control. In his 10 years other than regular injections only had to take him to the vet once. Now in the last two months he just seems to have so much to cope with. He is the most beautiful sweet natured dog, don't know what I'd do without him.

Welcome to the board, sai1504! So sorry to hear that your lab is having difficulties. Sounds like he's a great dog!

for his quick recovery! And when things settle down, we'd love to see pics of all your furbabies if you have some you'd like to share.
