Foxy has four legs

Well my post diagnosis was messy and the mute shut down and rejection of alll medical assistance was the out working of a failier of response that is typical of the mental health provisions in surrey. the few people I saw were ok and the psychiatrist did get me a step along but i was wel annoyed that his paper work was nessacary to qualify what i had been bleeting on about for years anf even now the system has let me drift off because i was traumatise dby the 40 questions it takes to get an assesment to go on the 18 month waiting list for therapy. PLEASE

So how was i exumed from my silence and driven from my pyjamas and the doldrums of indifferent failier and the contemplations of my own execution that I willing ly considered and rejected to continue what I saw as fsithful but self detructive choice to live.

Well She is called Foxy anad she is the dumped dog who escaped the battersey death nell, to become my little world of sucess on a different world view of things.

I am up at 4 to keep the floor dry and when she eats I remember to, her walks and my medication go together and all in all we are a good team, I have to be the boss and eat first and have learned to shout or bark when I am not happy with realy bad behaviour, I am the one who is at the training classes she is well smart and had to go up a class.

The staff at the school responded in fine style to my iam autistic card and a few of them have first hand experience and experts in the friend and family line who would consult to help my challenges, which was overwhelming on the first day.

http://adolescentdogs.com/ have been exelent in their understanding and have been keen to help me keep a sfe and happy doe mostly I needed reassuring that i wass not breaking her in some way.

So I was lead out of the rock under which I crawled realy by a small bright inteligent Little Red Dog, called Foxy.

When ther are no languages to bridge the devide it is the best of us as animals that we have in common, it is sad that we despise this beauty in ourselves as base and of no value or function, for I think it is the very antidote to all that ails us as a result of the toxicity of the life we call modern.

  • Hi

    You are doing well for Foxy..it all sounds very nurturing. The porridge we give ours is half oats half water..you don't need to add anything else. I'd be careful with the gravy granules as they can contain a lot of salt..not good for anyone.

    I save the vegetable cooking water or juices from the sunday roast to add too..any leftover cooked veggies or boiled rice would be soothing and nourishing if added to the dry food or porridge. Sensitive dogs are like us..the fewer additives the better.

    Hope you have enjoyed the weekend together..I had an impromptu hospital overnighter on Friday, then had to spend all day in bed Saturday when I was discharged. Managed a short (and slow) walk today which made me feel better in myself. 

    Gentle non threatening hugs to all.

    PS I have arranged a nice dance session for the boys tomorrow morning..1st time we've done it so I will let you know how that pans out.
