</div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">Wotan was my heart and soul dog. He was a truly wonderful gift from his breeder after a tragic accident killed his sister. He was my constant companion and kept me company as a pup, while on bedrest during a difficult pregnancy and as my personal therapy dog during chemotherapy. So tolerant of a then novice handler, Wotan was my "A" dog, and guinea pig and exposed to almost every dog activity out there. I showed this boy myself and put a 4-point major on him but we retired him at 13 points, just short of finishing his championship, as we tried unsuccessfully to get that last elusive major. He would not work for even the best handlers as he was such a momma's boy. </span></div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">Wotan had incredible drive and athleticism. Extremely birdy, he finished his Junior Hunter title easily and loved to hunt at the preserve. He even earned his first leg with a very pregnant handler traipsing behind. </span></div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">We then discovered agility and immediately became hooked. Wotan was born for this sport but it took years to bridle his extreme enthusiasm and drive, and gain control and consistency. He humbled his handler at many agility trials and if anything, always provided the entertainment. Amazingly at the age of 12, he completed his AX and AXJ titles with first places at all breed trials.<br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">Known as the Houdini dog, Wotan broke out of every crate made and would rather just guard the house from his perch on the couch.</span></div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small;">Wotan retired from agility (at age 12), and up until the very end, he still loved to hike, run around the yard and cuddle next to me in bed.</span></div>Lindahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01949013889319586242noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098765462759806760.post-80435332382804011782010-08-07T20:36:00.000-07:002010-08-07T20:47:14.461-07:00Back to normal...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6m7IHpwJwNlKRfC5dsy3XveClt8NMAAZ6iR5uxHwOa5Wn_Lrq4pMne_1k4GTemBHHcNOW5zbG2QO21nlhdAesowc9F0iIp8e8hLE0SPFEe1CfBodCH9H89UcoR5305tAhJu9OK-ogb_Of/s1600/DSC07372.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6m7IHpwJwNlKRfC5dsy3XveClt8NMAAZ6iR5uxHwOa5Wn_Lrq4pMne_1k4GTemBHHcNOW5zbG2QO21nlhdAesowc9F0iIp8e8hLE0SPFEe1CfBodCH9H89UcoR5305tAhJu9OK-ogb_Of/s400/DSC07372.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502878926492244050" border="0" /></a>Wotan has made such an amazing recovery from his bloat incident. It's hard to believe that it was only a week ago that he was released from the animal hospital. He's enjoying being home like nothing happened, lounging around the house and watching the girls romp in the yard while he suns himself in the grass. His biggest struggle was not getting treats while he was on a modified diet but now he can have them and is thrilled. He still wakes me up during the night to come up on the bed and snuggle with me.<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixQaQ4teqr-JnJL5P6KaE1UaEdyiU_ssITDSeI-8ufHBPK4dGfBVbDyxbA7d4_18SvVUQkiKp9ilozaRyuNntANi8vrATqCgKVSKPBO1Iy4SHj-ZCK4VW7Nif-cJXRNBiMxXRlLGVMH4qX/s1600/DSC07396.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 390px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixQaQ4teqr-JnJL5P6KaE1UaEdyiU_ssITDSeI-8ufHBPK4dGfBVbDyxbA7d4_18SvVUQkiKp9ilozaRyuNntANi8vrATqCgKVSKPBO1Iy4SHj-ZCK4VW7Nif-cJXRNBiMxXRlLGVMH4qX/s400/DSC07396.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502878918207411954" border="0" /></a>Getting ready for an afternoon nap...<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYXqq1_jaKO6gBa0F15thGWdWK5iXOH3erGT7Uo2ieyjHTuKa6oX3CGajdxJtrOGrBUGvZyPmI19uMpUQV7yAbsakMmU252W-o8ckyIKoYaVxaRXf201uShmZ1pDGgzMbOj0_Nb-GBEPsv/s1600/DSC07373.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYXqq1_jaKO6gBa0F15thGWdWK5iXOH3erGT7Uo2ieyjHTuKa6oX3CGajdxJtrOGrBUGvZyPmI19uMpUQV7yAbsakMmU252W-o8ckyIKoYaVxaRXf201uShmZ1pDGgzMbOj0_Nb-GBEPsv/s400/DSC07373.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502878929416299762" border="0" /></a>Enough with the pictures already!<br /></div>Lindahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01949013889319586242noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098765462759806760.post-7886183057160754332010-07-31T11:48:00.001-07:002010-07-31T11:51:05.261-07:00Welcome home buddy!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM9WNy9QNhSBIrKmE54vclMJe1uaGW6vEoJ2NH7uSNhGzamqa44ZNCOb-VeeTf6spOaZRCHsadwvVwbW_2ZDcimC9INzEvTD4uuScq27IYrHcBZBRNa43UzEbL5F8kgVVhPO1hpsnsKVWX/s1600/DSC07321.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM9WNy9QNhSBIrKmE54vclMJe1uaGW6vEoJ2NH7uSNhGzamqa44ZNCOb-VeeTf6spOaZRCHsadwvVwbW_2ZDcimC9INzEvTD4uuScq27IYrHcBZBRNa43UzEbL5F8kgVVhPO1hpsnsKVWX/s400/DSC07321.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5500144311204387634" border="0" /></a>After a two day stint in the animal hospital, Wotan has made an amazing recovery and is doing great.

I was able to sneak the camera out and get this picture last week before he got up.<br />
<br />
A very stressful day as Wotan is spending the night in the animal hospital after bloating late this afternoon. We were very lucky as I immediately recognized the signs of bloat and rushed him to the emergency vet before his stomach torsioned. The x-ray showed a tremendous amount of gas and a procedure was done to remove the gas. They will monitor him overnight and I hope he can come home tomorrow. <br />
<br />
If you are not familiar with bloat and own a large chested breed, you need to be familiar with the symptoms because this can occur very quickly and if not treated immediately can be deadly. From the WCA website:<br />
<b>Gastric Torsion or GDV, bloat/torsion, twisted stomach:</b><br />
Bloat is a disease common to deep-chested dogs that can involve twisting or torsion of the stomach with a subsequent blockage of the esophagus at one end and the intestine at the other. Bloat happens quickly and is often fatal without immediate veterinary attention. <br />
Its symptoms include retching with no vomiting, extreme salivation, obvious discomfort, and distention of the abdomen. Gulping food can bring on an attack of bloat, so Weimaraners should be fed twice daily to avoid the hunger pangs that lead to eating too fast. Some breeders believe that foods containing soybeans shouldn't be fed to breeds that are susceptible to bloat because the beans can produce gas.<br />
Many cases of bloat occur in the evening, after the dog has perhaps shared the family snack of pizza or some other highly-spiced food and then exercised. Treatment is expensive and not always successful. Feeding moistened dog food and postponing exercise for a couple of hours after the meal may help prevent bloat. You can also visit the <a href="http://www.ginnie.com/bloat.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Great Dane Bloat Book</a> for more info.Lindahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01949013889319586242noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098765462759806760.post-12313648657832423602010-06-27T14:31:00.001-07:002010-06-27T14:33:32.862-07:00Sunday nap<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIz0-tMPozksHhaRz1AcbTCUoEYQxSVlUx28H7D4nTiuBBagPYs3vlMicRfhL1EE3e34Vk44GrP1CQfQUaJugqRJIaG9L3zjEmT0CIri7B-CJ74y9RBV67gzWdLugC8A6qrAlkoHXuzhki/s1600/DSC06901.JPG"><img style="display: block;

We were a few days too early to see these pretty flowers so we will just have to go back another day. Wotan, Trixie and Jam LOVE to hike and the opportunity to explore the woods. It also tires the dogs out, which is a good thing!<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWvCCof4SnP13gYoSNFM_CJ1EIO9rSDZZU9tO53fUNmy0hUKDF62pomFL-gd8_C2L3bBcjOd4lomp8Ablk-u-OrL_-4BlJl0b5LfWrxob28cb6A5NqwZrn4xtTvPQBvION27Zvs4NVFRFI/s1600-h/DSC00356.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342158973750833202" style="DISPLAY: block;
