I thought he was maybe on about Fentanyl but he wasn't! He has some mad idea going about his head! Doesn't want to do long term pills and the dog licks fuciderm off! Who knows, he is a bit crazy! (aye the Vet not the dog!)

Thanks anyway everyone!

Yes Dunlops are lovely, our driver is SO sweet!! He is called Brendan and always chats, he loves our tortoises!!!!!!!! His only bad point is the Celtic towel in his van.....but then nobody is perfect!!!!!!

I love the people at Dunlops! They are always really helpful!

And they always ring if something is delayed or on a back order.

hey sarah

Rgey are avaible in the human health area, according to my OH> I'm guessing if you get the vet to write a prescrition for it you'll be able to get your hands on them
