We’re even more worried now - Luna has stopped eating. But I’ve told Si we need to get through whatever we need to get through with Polo today first (though he has perked up a bit)

The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
Oh dear it could just be the heat in Luna's case. Hugs to Luna, Polo, Paula and Si
77 and counting, less of the "Old" call me "Mike"
Will be thinking of you lovely

How are they both? How are you, Si and the girls?
Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!
Luna’s Not great but I’m pretty sure it’s the heat. She hasn’t eaten over the weekend and is lethargic so we’ll keep an eye on her
Just got back from the vets. Polo is a bit brighter today this morning and had a mouthful of food for the first time since Wednesday night. He has pancreatitis and probably a secondary infection affecting his kidneys. The vet is happy with how much he’s improved but said he’s not out of the woods yet. He’s got antibiotics and will need repeat bloods in a month. We took a risk bringing him home Saturday against vets advice but he’s had 24/7 care from us this weekend that he wouldn’t have had in hospital.
There’s been lots of tears in this family this morning! (except Jess, she doesn’t do tears lol)

That's good news Paula

Poor old Polo....but he's at home and I believe it's the right place. He doesn't need stress at the moment, besides he'll get better quicker with you all around him. A day at a time Paula eh?
Yep, Flo, absolutely

Wow, I wasn't expecting that! Well done Polo, such a fighter!!!

Us neither! Si actually cried in front of the vets - even the girls haven’t ever seen him cry! My mum prayed for a miracle, I told her that wasn’t going to happen. I was wrong
However, Luna’s not great :/ she’s not been eating the last couple of days, the heats been getting to her. She’s old and skinny anyway so has nothing to spare and her legs are weak. So we’ve started syringing yoghurt and fish into her. Flipping dogs!
