Iโm a mini dachshund whose favourite hobbies are sleeping and chasing chippies. I suffer from seizures but am still a happy boy who lives life to the fullest!
I have received msgs from those who did not see our friendโs tweet sharing the tragic news. We lost our best friend, my fur baby. I canโt bring myself at this time to be on X. Please know when Iโm ready, I will read each comment. Your love for Brownie has never gone unnoticed โค๏ธ
Iโm asking my Twitter fwends to share some love for my Mom. Sheโs having a procedure at the hospital tomorrow (nothing major) but sheโs nervous ๐ We know how great effuryone is here with support ๐ฅฐ
Mom gets nervous posting pics of me bc sheโs worried Iโll get fat shamed. Since being medicated, Iโve put on a lot of weight. I walk almost every day, eat a special diet with restricted calorie intake treats, etc. Mom & vet are trying but my meds make it hard. Please be kind.
We received some devastating news today...my brother, Toby, has been poorly and after a vet checkup, we found out he has days at best. Heโs only 8 years old. We are shattered.
My Mom is starting a new job tomorrow - well same job, new place, new people - can we please send some, โgood luckโ her way; sheโs feeling a tad nervous.
Brownie suffered a terrifying seizure this morning. I truly felt he wasnโt going to come out of this one. He has been given his meds, and is resting.
Please donโt ever get a dog if this is the life you cannot or will not provide. A dog should be part of the family. A dog should live primarily indoors (with exceptions dependent of breed and character) Dogs are not property, they are living beings with feelings.
My boy put my momโs military beret on me last night. Itโs a little bent out of shape from being stored for years but I think I pull it off! Every dachshund deserves a beret! Reminds our humans whoโs in charge ๐
Brownie suffered another seizure this afternoon. This is the 1st time heโs had them 3 days in a row, even when he suffered the cluster seizures before. I will be calling his vet to discuss increasing his meds or possibly changing them. Please keep sending the love, we need it โค๏ธ
Itโs my boyโs birthday today!! Can we share some birthday love please! This will be his first birthday he isnโt able to celebrate with friends and itโs big 13!!
Brownie just had quite a rough, and long seizure. Heโs still breathing hard and acting strangely. Please hold him tight tonight. He needs your strength.
On a walk w Brownie & two older men come up & one says, โhe needs a dietโ& the other says, โmom feeds you too much.โ Comments like these are really hurtful. I know Brownie has been over weight since starting meds; his calories are counted & he gets exercise but meds cause gain.
Brownie has been doing well since his seizure this morning. It was the longest & worst one yet. I seriously thought this was the one that was going to take him from us. Our boy was bawling & I did too afterward. Heโs tired of course but otherwise doing well โค๏ธ
I had a seizure this morning after waking; it wasnโt too big of one and Iโm doing well. Iโve been playful and had all my meals. Just was off to a rough start.
Hey Twitter friends, Brownieโs mom here, asking for positive vibes. Brownie had a seizure yesterday and just now today. Last time he had a seizure two days in a row, they turned into cluster seizures and he needed to be rushed to the emergency vet.
Hello fwends! I had a bad fall today and Mom is keeping an eye on me. I hit my back on a few of the stairs but my back seems okay!! My paw is hurting me though so Mom will tend to it and take me to the vet if necessary, but she thinks I just need some rest and cuddles for now ๐
Mom hasnโt been well and spent a night in the hospital. She says my cuddles are good medicine but that I have to be careful around her. We havenโt tweeted much the past two weeks as thereโs been a lot going on. We love our Twitter fwends and still check in when we can ๐
I helped Mom wrap presents! She wasnโt too grateful though, I heard a lot of, move please, I need what youโre standing on, please move your toy, not near the scissorsโฆ.
Hello fwends! Just a quick note to say Iโve been doing well! No more seizures and my energy is back, and my appetite lol. Weather has been yucky though so not much outdoor time :(
We are in disbelief :( Woke up this morning to a house just down from us on fire. We know the man that lives there & he has a dachshund as well as other dogs & cats. The people made it out and are at the hospital, and the dogs made it out though one needed help from the firemen.
Good morning fwends. This is me in bed last night. Unfortunately I woke this morning having another seizure. Mom is staying with me on the couch now. If I have another, I have to go to the ER.
This is my teddy and his name is Teddy. Heโs very special to me; I must have him every night for bed time. I even carry him with me when I move to the other side of the bed.
After almost exactly 3 months with no seizures, Brownie had his worse one yet this morning. I administered Valium and heโs been resting since. This one was the scariest of them all, and not like his others. Will be keeping a close eye on him to see if he needs to go to the vet.
Our dear, precious friend,
@JackBauerDog
has been rushed to the emergency vet. He possibly suffered a stroke or bad seizure. Please send positive words of support, prayers if you can, and keep this sweet boy in your thoughts. Paws in.
I had yet another seizure last night. Iโve eaten my meals today but refused any treats. Mom got me a new toy to help cheer me up. I absolutely love toys and got so excited, I tried to kill him ๐ Iโm napping next to mom now.
Hello fwends. I am more myself today but still want to mostly sleep. I bugged mom for my breakfast because she was being too slow! So she took that as a good sign. Iโve spent most of my time on the couch resting these past couple of days. Letโs hope for a good day!!
Mom was going through her pics and came across my bday pics from last year. They make her smile she says, and she wanted to share so you could smile too!
So I did something a little naughty....and Iโm not even sorry for it! Mom came in with a bag, and while she was taking her boots off, I went inside the bag and stole my Xmas present right out and ran away with it ๐
Just finishing up at the hospital. They wanted to keep him for a couple of days, but my fear is that the stress would trigger more seizures. He has been given meds and am just waiting for some paperwork and meds to go home with.
