After thinking Tiny Tom had kennel cough it turns out after a heart scan he is in heart failure. ..he is on 3 meds a day which will hopefully give him one year of good quality of life. ..seems so unfair as he is only 9 :(

Since the weather has been changing one minute cold one warm we have had wasps in the lawn ...Tom must have sniffed one and got stung gave him a piriton but it took 24 hours for his face to return back to normal
