Great news! xx

I know I'm so excited for him ..Debbie said hes doing really well and thinks he might just need a tidy up now and again but will wait and see what simon says on his next appointment on the 1st oct ..He was doing ok but then not very good and suddenly coming on leaps and bounds xx
 
Oh my gosh I just read this thread, this is amazing!! And so inspiring. I wish there were more people and vets out there willing to put In a Little extra effort to save a life, far too many are too quick to opt out and end one.

I am so thrilled gizmo is doing so well, what a wonderful story and he is such a lucky boy to have a family willing to go the extra mile for him xxxxxx
 
I also hope you have informed your vet about what's happened? They should learn not to be so negative all the time, I have had this On a Few occasions now with Rodney and he wouldn't be here now if I didn't get further advice and second opinions. Really annoys me.

I have TMJ but without the pain (so far) - I click my jaw constantly & got it from grinding my teeth due to stress when my dad died. It's awful enough for an adult never mind someone so small.

Just so chuffed for you and how lovely to see how a new friend helped make the difference too! Bless him.

Its his teeth ..They were all spurred and his mouth all ulcerated but with the help of simon and debbie he is getting back on track ..I'm glad i joined this forum to seek advice and brought him down from Edinburgh to see simon as my own vet wanted to put him to sleep x

I mentioned to my vet about it and he could not deal with his top teeth ..I am so glad he went to debbies :) Hopefully he will be home with us soon i miss him so so much xx
 
Amazing post... it's so great to see a piggy make a great recovery with proper care! Some vets are just too quick to give up on them! This made me smile! :)
 
Just wanted to update everybody and say that Gizmo arrived home from TEAS yesterday to one very excited daughter ! we were all glad to have him back with us ..Unfortunately he had to come back on his own without Chester which i felt sad about but hes doing great and seems to be happy enough being on his own ..He needs to go for a further check up in november but Debbie and simon are pretty confident he wont require a lot of ongoing treatment now so fingers crossed :)

A great big thank you to Simon maddock for helping us And also a massive thank you to Debbie @furryfriends Excellent Adventure Sanctuary Could not have done it without you :) x

Will post pictures later when husband home from work :)
 
Not a very clear picture with my phone but hes ate non stop ..Had to move his fleece bed beside all his food haha ..I'm so glad hes doing great ! x
 
This is great news :) and testament to the round the clock care Debbie provides at TEAS. please keep us updated on Gizmo x
