Keeping fingers and toes crossed for you and yes they are worth it. Good luck. It's something I am now worrying about with my dogs :scared:

Hopefully by Friday or Monday, then take them to Golden Arrow next Wednesday so they are ready to fly out on then Sunday. I sure as hell hope they are ok as hubby says if we have to keep on paying £200 each time they are tested there is a limit to how many times we can do that.

Really sorry to hear about this, having met your two beautiful pillows for Alex, I am gutted to hear you're having problems with these tests for them. Keeping all our fingers crossed for you & sending lots of love

Just received the phone call from the vet to say that both dogs are now fit to fly as Meg's lepto level has not gone up and Hollie's has come down to the same as Meg's

So we are off to Golden Arrow on Wednesday and they will fly out on Sunday. I am really going to miss them until we can get out there as well. Thanks for all the support everyone and I hope I didn't make you all panic about your own dogs too much Sorry

bugger............

Brogan (our 10month old) passed with flying colours... Bailey (3yrs) failed!

bailey came back 1:100............. AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH :scared:

she gets re-tested on wednesday morning (11th) but is due to fly out of the country on the 18th.... why oh why oh why does the uk need to have all these stupid public holidays that hold everything up!!!!


vet is on the phone to the lab at the minute to explain situation and see if they can speed up the process of testing and getting the results back to us...


as if i didn't have enough to do this week already!

con't be bothered going to australia now it's all becoming too stressful!

The real borderline is 1:400 so as long as she stays at 1:100 (like Meg did) she will be fine. Mine had their tests done on Tuesday morning and they came back today so that is only 3 days. Do what we did and keep the dogs indoors as much as possible so that they don't run the risk of entering a lepto environment. We also paid extra for the vet to send the tests of as guaranteed next day delivery. I suppose you could send a guaranteed return envelope as well so that they come back from the lab in time as well.

Best of luck.
