Now I really mean this, If you don't cut his food right down and give him more exercise he is going to be really ill, You must harden your heart and keep him on a very strict diet.
Oh I will, Mr. Herriot. I'm sure you are right, but it is so difficult, very difficult.
Don't you worry Mrs. Pumphrey, he will get fine.
Hurry up Staff! Bring all the stuff of Tricki.
Oh! Mr. Herriot please take care of my Tricki. Please make sure to ask if anything required.
I will keep an eye on him for two days and till that he will have no food to eat but plenty of water.
Mr. Herriot and Mrs.Pumphrey talk about Tricki 's health on the street.
Day 3
He is becoming active now.
Tricky became seriously ill after a few days. He was vomiting and refused to eat anything. The only way to cure him now was to Hospitalise him. Mr.Herriot then came to pick up Tricki from Mrs.Pumphrey.
Day 4
You did it Tricky, Well done boy.
I think I should make Tricki a permanent guest and get brandies daily.
Hello Mrs. Pumphrey,I am very happy to tell you that you can take Mrs.Pumphrey back now.
All other pets gathered around Tricki. Tricki laid down listlessly, motionless on the carpet.
After a fort Night
LAST DAY
Oh, Mr. Herriot, How can I ever thank you? This is a triumph of surgery.
On the third day, Tricky began to whimper and joined his friends to the yard. Also, at the same noon, at feeding time, all dogs ran rushing to finish their bowls but Tricki being fat and unable to run found empty bowls.Hence,he got nothing to eat that day too.
On the fourth day, Tricky ran about with the dogs and squashed on the meal. He was getting better with each passing day without any medicinal treatment.Mrs.Pumphrey used to call Mr. Herriot to get the latest updates about Tricki's health. She used to send fresh eggs, two dozen at a time, and brandy for Tricky but Mr. Herriot knew that it was all out of love. He knew that In this way he would overfeed Tricky so he used to have all the share of Tricky and enjoyed them.
