Stomach Flu

Disclaimer: Ok, I know it's not the nicest topic to talk about but don't worry I won't go into details, promise!

I think it's amazing how animals know when something's not quite right.  Recently I was struck down with a nasty tummy bug.  Living in an apartment and having a dog that refuses to use a balcony pet loo, this meant poor Barky Boy had to hang on a loooong time before he got to go to the toilet.  Did he kick up a fuss?  No, instead he spent the days snuggled up to me (a rarity) with his head on my stomach, occasionally giving it a lick when it gave a particularly noisy groan.

Sorry for the terrible picture, but I was really sick and couldn't be bothered faffing about with a camera!

When the stomach bug finally passed, nurse Barkly took a well deserved rest:
