Dogs - who'd have em!

Otto had an upset tummy over the weekend which isn't unusual, but yesterday he was really poorly - very low and was collapsing on his back legs. So we rushed him up to the vet.

He had a slight temperature and seemed to have some tightness in his hips, and so got an anti-inflammatory and an antibiotic.

This morning - he's running around, full of energy!! If I didn't know better I'd think he was acting, trying to get the attention he reckons has been transferred to the pup!!

No such thing as man flu!! You girls just cant take the fact that once in a while us guys might suffer heavily from the stresses of being a man!
The headaches are usually usually brought on by the wife/girlfriend nagging, sore throat from the lack of strong ale and sneezes from the dog being allowed to sleep on MY pillow while im at work....
Hope this clears the "man flu myth" up.

Learn the Bleeding Truth, Colin.
It isn't even man flu - it is male flu. Observable in male animals of all ages and species...

Hi Lorna, found this for you to read!

Man Flu : The Shocking Truth

Man Flu is a crippling and debilitating disorder indiscriminately striking down male members of the human species without warning. The illness is often referred to pejoratively by female members of the species who are in fact immune from the illness as man flu is now known to exclusively attack the XY chromosome carrier. If Man Flu is kind enough not to kill the infected party it will definitely leave him weak, sick, hurting everywhere and in dire need of TLC.

Medical professionals now also widely recognise that self diagnosis by the sufferer is the best means of identification as the symptoms of Man Flu are far more severe than the simple common cold which predominantly targets the XX chromosome holders (i.e. females). This goes some way to explain the cynicism some women display towards their male counterparts.

See, i wasnt kidding !
