Wink Hi
My name is reenee. I have a 12yr old Jack Russell Wire Hair Terrier mix named Joey who has just recently developed a problem with his hind leg called a patella luxation. I also have several cats which Joey gets along with the exception of one.... but someone has to keep the house in order. I also have one kissing fish whos partner died shortly after we got it about 10 years ago. We tried getting it a new partners but she kissed them all to death. She's perfectly happy kissing the plecostamus.
I'm hoping to get some info to help Joey with his problem as I really don't like the idea of surgery as my Vet said that it is not guaranteed and could result in complications.

Welcome to the board, Reenee! Sorry to hear that Joey is having joint troubles. If you start a thread about it, I'm sure you'll get some good advice

Meanwhile, though, we will absolutely require pics...not just of Joey, but also of the kitties and the amazing pleco-kisser.

Hi Reenee and welcome!
I am also very sad to hear about your dogs situation. Hurry and start a thread, you will get answers!

And yes, we need pictures. Especially of that fish, I've never heard of one! I should google it...

I currently do not have any pictures of my babies on the computer mainly because I don't have that kind of camera. I still have the old school take it to the photo mart to have it developed but I'll see what I can do with my cell phone...

Do you have a scanner? I still take the occasional photo with the old manual 35mm and scan in the prints when they come back from processing. Another option is to order a photo CD when you get your prints

Nope...no excuses allowed



Hope you figure it out soon!

Hi there *waving*

Welcome to the forum!

I had trouble with those scale sucking fish too. They just kept sucking the scales off the other fish, so we had to separate them. LOL
