The life of Dot and Bernie

My ex suffered with a duodenal ulcer for years from 21 to 40. Had a couple of perforations too. On lots of medication such as cimetadine. He eventually had an op to remove it and re-attach his duodenum to the other side of his stomach due to scaring. It solve all the problems he was having. Drink milk (or Horlick) before you go to bed, it will help line your stomach. Helicobacter Pylori bacteria can cause ulcers, and is often found within the stomach of people with ulcers, this can be killed off by a mixture of medications for about 6 weeks, then your ulcer should shrink and heal
 
My flu has gone, thank god! But I'm still taking tomorrow off work! It has knocked me out lol. I'm soo tired, its like a sickness hangover

Thanks for this help, I'm back at docs tomorrow to have a check. Could only see nurse friday
 
Because of the nice weather here today, i have open the living room window😁. BUT! Dot is not happy, she has smelt her grass supply being mowed away by the council and is screeching very very loudly at me because she can smell the grass fumes in the air and thinks i have a handfull😐.

Glad you’re feeling a bit better.
Be careful not to overdo things and knock yourself back

I'm all better now, i honestly think now that i had food poisining from mcdonalds. Il find out soon when i hear back about my stool sample. And if it was food poisining, I'm going to report it. I have just noticed i have an umbilical hernia now for god sake!. Thats me and Dot that need operations now

I can't wait until we move (hopefully in the not too distant future) and my piggies will have a guinea pig room in the garage and then they can be out and about all the time.

This will be heaven for them. They will have top health from being able to run everywhere
 
I love that video, the last pig doesnt need to run, just eat where you are! 🤣🤣🤣.

Watch how the white aby at the end jumps i that tent, then lands so funny because he realised mid jump, that he has run into an occupied tent🤣🤣
 
Just wondering, does anyone else have a pair of guinea pigs that dont hate eachother, but one of them just doesnt want to be near the other, my problem is Dot. She isnt nasty to Bernie but if he gets too close to her she will spray pee at him, or sort of fake bite him.

She does this to me aswell, but she does really like a back stroke. Its just if i go near her mouth area. I'm definitly not splittinf them up, but Bernie is fine, he is the one who will go over to Dot and lick her ears, he popcorns around when Dot fake bites her lol.

They are a weird couple. I just wish Dot would let go of her defensiveness
 
Betsy said:
Fake biting is on the mild form of dominance. She is just reminding Bernie that she is boss. Wee spraying is a very clear message to stay away.

But Bernie kicks her out of the houses whenever he wants that one lol and he just keeps on trying to lick her ears. Is there a chance they just cant figure out whos boss?
 
Sounds like they are just married lol!
Puggle isnt very nice to her beloved Theo, she follows him around nagging him and dominating him and sometimes telling him who he's allowed to hang out with, fortunately this effect is diluted a lot in a herd of 6 and a 26 square foot cage so they can both get away from each other!
I am a bit worried in advance about how intense a 2-pig relationship might be, for when Tallulah meets her potential new husband next week... after 6 weeks of girl cousins Piggle and Puggle living together we already knew we needed an extra piggy and more space as they didnt get on too well and they still dont, they snap and squabble all the time, cant even go to the vets in the same pet carrier... a married couple should be better though I hope? I'm sure Dot and Bernie love each other as much as any married couple do...

I just hope she never catches him and causes a wound by mistake. They are a strange pair
 
We've had a couple of accidental nips and usually the biter is very sorry and does a flattening themselves on the floor with submissive shame thing and then approaches the bitten piggy sideways in a non-confrontational way and licks the bite better and does lots of friendly face licking, very different to a full-on fight. When Jezzy got an accidental nose bite that looked a bit nasty we bathed it with saline and she was instantly the most popular piggy because saline must taste irresistable and everypig was queuing up to lick her face!
 
I've said before, my two completely love each other. Then I'll have a few days that Rupert stays well away, Jess is a terror! He's not allowed to do much!
Think it's just hormonal ladies calling the shots! I try not to worry, think because yours haven't been together too long you probably notice a lot more. After six years ish I just know the hormones are at full pelt and give him a rest sometimes!

I went from a pair of chilled out boars to a crazy girl with poor loverly Rupert! So different for me too when they first got together! Try not to worry so much :nod:

(Sorry I've completely missed a page, dopey seizure brain, tried to help from problem a while ago!
Grr!)
