Keep yer chin up gel! Sending a hug, just in case you need it.
I know Jazzi, she just had a silly, carefree 30 seconds and wallop - nearly broke her back. Terrible fright.

Just because she is not limping, and she ate all her tea, I am a bit worried incase there is any internal bleeding.
What do you think?

Re: I am all worn out
Today's problems didn't end with Gertie either.I said yesterday about the bad screeding all needing to come up.
Well when the chap chipped it all off today, he found another dodgy un-primed layer underneath.
He took all that up too.
Underneath that layer he found dodgy tiles.
He took all those up.
Underneath those dodgy tiles, he found a 4th layer - more tiles.
He took those up too.
So when we all came back home tonight expecting the new screed to be dry enough to walk on and get our tea, what we found was a new soaking wet floor that had only just been laid due to what he'd had to do first!
Now I am worried the insurance won't cover that. They might say all those bodged layers were nothing to do with the subsidence claim.
I'm almost at my wit's end this week, but I must hang on, we're nearly there now.

And, hold on to that last thought... 'nearly there now!'
Oh and one last thing.... stock up... we want cakes and booze all round to celebrate when it's all done!

Does she have any of these symptoms? :

Thanks very much for that Annie.
It is such a dreadful mess here, it is like living in Steptoe's yard at the moment, but I think I know where my doggie thermometer is, so I will take her temperature tonight, and check her wee & poo in daylight tomorrow too.
Thanks again. x
And thank you to everyone else who has commented.
I'm very grateful for your opinions.

Re: I am all worn out
I had Gertie in with me to sleep last night so I would hear if she was in trouble, but little monkey wouldn't stay in her bed, she wanted me.I was so tired so gave in in the end and let her curl up with me, and she was blissfully content and didn't move till this morning. Her temperature was normal last night.
I rang my vet just after 8 o/clock to double check for advice and to ask whether they ought to see her, and they said her gums would show if there was any internal bleeding and she would probably be off her food and quiet.
Thank God she seems alright.
She is quiet, but she gets worried by all the noise and builders in and out, but I'm fairly confident she will be alright. I love that little dog, so it was all very frightening.
The flooring men have arrived and are just putting a layer of Latex down
It is a quick drying one apparently, because they have got to get the vinyl down today as well, because the storage people are due to return my furniture late p.m.
