Gracie keeps getting poorly. It's just so horrible to watch her going up and down like a yo-yo. One minute all fine, racing about and next minute not eating, shivering, runny tummy. The Parentals took her to see vet Simon as her temperature keeps dropping and her haws come over her eyes and she has lost weight. Momma thinks she knows what is wrong, but is all the same, very very worried.
Gracie is just 10months old and has been calling for a boy since she was 4 months old. It has been a very worrying time because when Lillibet was 11 months old she had a Pyometra and then blood poisoning from it. We don't want the same for Gracie but now it all seems to be making her very poorly. Luckily, when Simon feels her he can't feel anything inside her tummy that might suggest it but also states that she should be mated at this tender age to stop any progression of such a thing. The problem is, she is 'stuck' in mid call - has been for a month now. nearly there but gets too ill once the hormones kick in. Stuck in an endless cycle of it. Simon also states that he does not enjoy spaying girls in heat - it can be done, but really shouldn't be. Also discussed the Neuter-UM chip too. Just like the one Faith had, but Gracie is a virgin!
There is nothing for it then - she will be going to her new boyfriend 'up-north'. He is a nice Yorkshire lad of a young age but very experienced and gentle. He is a black smoke and exceptionally handsome and to boot he is a Grand Champion. Oooh 'eck. Being a 'nesh' southerner from the Somerset she will need to have heated rugs and molly coddling. Thankfully for the Parentals, such kind people exist and they are willing to take our baby Gracie and make her a lady - once she is knocked up with a bairn or two of course, this is no finishing school!
