    I would keep it, esp if renewal doesn't go up. Murphy's would have been in 400s, 500s I'm.sure if we had kept going and claimed. We were with M and S.

    I agree. I cancelled Murphy's before he got sick as just for allergies it had risen to £300 a month at 9 years old. Then he got sick. Two months later his bill was £2500 for just one visit. No insurance. Regretted cancelling but all in all, think it's no win situation

    That's great....I got this in an email.....you will prob get one too. Good to give info and do something feels better. I think you could just do research re new pups and then go with informed decision. Even if it did trigger Murphy's illness, it prob was rare.......as you said Rusty was ok. I'm...

    I have a vaccination card for him with some details on. I didnt write down my vets details as it wasnt one of the boxes you had to fill in to submit. I feel similar that I do not want to start a big thing over what happened as there is no proof and emotionally, although I'm angry, I think health...

    I felt I wanted to report any possible associations to lepto 4 and so did via the link below. It may or may not be related but felt I needed to voice my concerns as I always had a niggling feeling that things went suddenly downhill after that vet visit when the locum gave the lepto 4 instead of...

    Murphy had 3 blood transfusions as they said he would die without them. I guess we will never really know what caused things and I think I'm realising now that the past 20 months has been very traumatic for all of us. I think its great you're going to have the joy of more dogs in the future I...

    My vets also stopped annuals and boosters after June 2017 as Murphy was too poorly. I've been doing some reading and says dogs who might have immune reaction because of vaccine would be predisposed and prob go on to develop problems re immune system by another trigger. Murphy was on steroids for...

    Just checked his records and he was given lepto 4 june 2017. I remember being mad at the time as vet had given him the new one without asking. Murphy was diagnosed with severe anemia in Oct 2017 after few months of eating soil

    I was trying to pinpoint where Murohy got worse and I did think it was after his last yearly injection in 2017 where the locum vet gave him the new vaccine without asking me then apologises after. What is your experience of the lepto injections?

    So lovely to hear from people who loved their dogs so deeply too. Murphy loved the camera lol. A lady in Scotland where we went on holiday once shouted down the road "he is the Brad Pitt of the dog world". Lol x

    It was so lovely the dogs had each other. Murphy was a Tibetan Terrier. I will try again to upload a pic. Struggling today as week since we let him go. Trying not to blame myself and blame the disease which took him away from me. Also sad I'll never take a new photo of him again.

    Awwwww, that's lovely he was so close. Murphy mostly liked to sleep on our bed for first part of night then downstairs. But he couldn't get upstairs in last few weeks and if we carried him he just sat on bed looking sad.
