Gerardo Fears Losing SECOND DOG in Just 2 Months 😥 | Bondi Vet 

I liked Gerado said he didn't understand the bond pets and owners have until he got his first dog. He is a better vet because of it.

I understand the pain. My aussie passed right after her 14th birthday. I've lost family, friends but nothing hurt as much as losing her. Been a couple years and I still miss her.

I love both of these Vets. Love seeing them as a couple.❤️❤️

The dog is in the absolute best position possible with what ever his illness is. He will be taken care of to the fullest extent possible because of who his owner is and he deserves no less. I love to watch you guys and have the utmost respect for you. God bless you for all that you at Bondi vet and all other vets do for that matter. It just shows the kind of people you are and the kind of hearts you have. Thank you.

This is a happy result for y’all and Diesel. Yes, he will still have episodes, but at least you will have more time to enjoy each other.

Diesel have the best parents.

Such a beautiful couple ...❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Losing one we love is tough. Many consider dogs as just "animals". But we fall in love with them at first sight; do our best do give them a great life, so when that time comes to say farewell to your BF it leaves a hole in your life

I had a dog with that problem and she never got better. She would fall over in places it was hard to get her out of. Eventually she hated being picked up and tried to bite. She was miserable so I let her go. Glad your pupper recovered.

Bless you 🙏it's so very hard to loose a pet .I had to make the decision to let mine go, she was 17 years old.i pray you have a few more years with yours 🙏🙏💗❤️

I'm so sorry! I had 2 dogs for almost 16 years, then suddenly I lost Little Miss Saigon, she had a heart attack at 4:30 one morning and died at 7:15. One year later I lost my Kiyoko she was also a border collie like your baby. It's been so very hard to live without a dog now. I cannot have a dog where I am living now. There are 3 cats in the household and I thought it would be enough, but it's not the same at all. I wish you only the best for you and your sweet baby. May God bless you with many more hours together..

We never know what a unconditional love is until we bond with our animals and they with us. Prayers for Diesel & the Dr's

Finding this show was an absolute gift. I truly feel honoured to share in the lives of the veterinarians, the beautiful patients and their loving owners. Not to mention the humour and crazy Adventures. I was immediately invested in the regulars on the show. I just can't get enough. I've watched every available episode and I'm already starting to watch them again. The only unfortunate thing is I'm forced to recognize the inadequate that's that I have been seeing over the years.

his heart is breaking.

There's no way not to cry, right Dr Gerardo?

Oh, Gerardo, I feel your pain 😢💔😞

So happy that all is good with your baby he is so handsome and adorable give him all the love you can! You all on Bondi are the greatest!🥰💜👍🐾💞

Yes - vet who actually is capable showing just how much he loved his doggies. How very touching and even beautiful to see this relationship. It is a vet like this who I would not hesitate to entrust the health of my own dog too.

He is your BEST FRIEND, Lucky and Healthy .

So glad the news was good. It is hard to let go of someone that has been in your life for a long time. Even as a vet, I can imagine how helpless Gerardo feels. I lost my furangel in February 2020, just before lockdown. She would have turned 17 six weeks later and she had been in my life since she was 12 weeks old - a long time for just the two of us. Bubby had dementia and blind due to cataracts and was diagnosed with a stroke after taking her for her annual checkup. I never bought her home which was totally unexpected. So, when Gerardo said it may be Diesel’s last day, my heart broke for him. The bond between dog and owner can’t be broken, even after they leave us. RIP Shiek. Hoping Diesel recovers quickly. 😘💕🐕🐶

Are Drs. Alexa and Gerardo a pair ?? I certainly hope so !! They look so good together .........

When Diesel walks at the end his body is up against Dr. Alex's legs. I wonder if he is a little bit blind and is using her as a guide? Dogs can compensate very well when they go blind. I had two very old dogs over the years that went blind and I didn't realize with either one for a while. One went to go on a walk as usual and ran into the door case.

I’m so glad Diesel is ok. Theyres nothing more Loving 🥰 than the Love ❤️ and Compassion from our Furbabies , and the Love ❤️ and Compassion we give our Furbabies. Live a Longer and Healthier Life Diesel with Yur Soulmate Dr. Vet. ❤️🙏🙋‍♀️🐶🥰💋🐾🙌🤗😉☺️👋.

My sweet dog got vestibular disease in her geriatric years. She eventually recovered but it took a long time. It's such an awful feeling to see your dog with its head tilted, moving in circles, and knowing how sick it must feel. My heart goes out to Gerardo and Diesel, especially so soon after the loss of Shiek.

My dog is also deaf with this issue. We were terrified when she first had symptoms. It's good to know she's just an old lady and she got better after 2 weeks.

Awwwww I’m so very sorry 😢

My dog developed a major personality and physical signs of distress after we went through a massive wildfire. Lived away for 6 weeks, she didn't see her cat for that entire time. She stroked out on me this past June. So sad, but she is still on my property.

That's the best news ever!!!! Sending loads of love and wet, sloppy kisses for Diesel, healing prayers are also sent 💜😘🙏🐾🐾🐾🐾

Awww I'm Sooo Sorry 😢 Hugs

Best wishes that Diesel lives lots more years - he’s beautiful. BC’s are the best - but all dogs are great!

So much love

I lost my American bulldog to lymphoma at 5 years young, I understand the fear of the unknown and I'm so happy you had good results! We fought it hard for 4 months and it was relentless. This video made me ugly cry until the end, then a smile❤️

This is heartbreaking news to hear. Our 4 legged companions are family who enriches our lives. my heart goes out to Dr.Gerardo as well as his wife for this very dark time. Dr.Gerardo gave his k9 companions a very good life and has dedicated his whole life to being a healer of animals. I can see he is very sad..sending lots of love and prayers

So happy for your pup. Glad you two have one another for support thru tough times. Glad you got your pups and now understand, yes they are like your children. Take good care!

I lost my girl of 12 years recently. I know the fear. It's a HORRIBLE feeling.

I am so happy for you! I will pray for Diesel’s continued wellness. God bless all of you!

I’ve had Border Collies my whole life because I grew up on an English farm. We retire them at 8 years old, and they generally live until about 12, but a few years ago, we lost our 8 year old tri-colour, Flynn, 3 days after we retired him, from a GDV that we unfortunately caught too late. Border Collies are the smartest and most loyal dogs, and I think I’ll always have one.

Best of luck Diesel!

I feel for you cause I've lost dogs and cats and it hurts like crazy! I will pray for you.

Its sweet how much he loves his dogs... Good human being this!

Anyone know how recent/old this story is?? My Border Collie had this, he gradually improved and went on for another 3 years made it to 17 - you'll know when he's had enough - just spoil him rotten and enjoy your time with him 💜💜

Dear Dr my heart goes out to you, your tears are our tears. Happy you have more time with each other. God bless

We will pray for th e dog to get well because love 💕 all the animals he takes care of

I sometimes have vertigo and know how miserable that can be. I wish him many years with no episodes.

Didn’t even know they were a couple they r a cute couple 😊❤️

I feel for you. Cause I have a dog myself although she is only 10 months old.and healthy. Diesel is so beautiful!

Get another dog for a companion for Diesel

So sad ' but he is loved ♥🐶

Diesel enjoy all the TLC that you are getting. 💖💖💖💖💖💖

Diesel, hope you are okay now. Good luck

Oby wszystkie filmy kończyły się tak szczęśliwie .

😢😢l know l lost my little girl Lesay in May she was 14 an SPCA rescue! She became so gentle and loving it still hurts so much l just try to remember she is not hurting anymore !❤️

A vet supporting another vet is so special

Bondi Vet Dr Gerardo you made cry.😥 Glad he still has years of companionship ❣ Salutations 💌

Gerardo, I'm happy your Diesel pup is doing alright. 😊

Prayers for Diesel. And, don't you just love them as a couple.?

It would be so much scarier for a vets pet to become unwell 🤧 just the same as a doctors family member getting cancer, I bet they wished they were blissfully unaware 😢

Now you need to get him another mate.❤

My family and I lost a new puppy after only a week due to the neighbours placing poison on and around our property which is was also the same cause of 2 of our other dogs to pass away both on the same day prior to the pup we had for a week. I will always remember that pain that I had throughout all of the school day. Bc one passed in the morning and the feeling of getting home and doing hoping to hold the other but finding out she had passed that afternoon. It still destroys me to this day.

Diesel reminds me of the time I had vertigo. Walking was a thing of the past. Falling into things, the new norm.

I had my wonderful Boston Terrier as my best friend for 11 years. He started to have seizures and was gone in 2 weeks. It all happened so fast. A few weeks later I got a puppy. I am glad I did, because exactly 3 months after my bostie boy died, our approx 13 year old mini beagle died. Such a horrible time for our family. A few weeks ago our 7 mos old pup got into pain killers. We caught it quickly and he has fully recovered. Pets are our family and we are very attached to them. I am so glad this deisel will be ok for a little while.

I lost 2 dogs within 3 months...One was a sudden stroke, he just never even woke up. The second was an apparent brain issue, seziers they couldn't get stopped, over night she just got worse and worse, couldn't even get up...partly conscious...was clear she was dying, almost certainly a brain tumor, and was now just crying, in spite of all they could do, obviously in pain, I will not let one suffer. I have 2 dogs left, one is blind, so she's with me in the apartment, doing great. The one I feel so sad for is now alone. All of them were together all their lives, were 10 and 11. Little bit, who is 60 lbs, so not little, is ok, but I hate that he's alone. I take the one in the apartment, Teensy, on a visit occasionally. Which they enjoy, but it's a huge pen, lots of dog - dug holes, so I have to watch that she doesn't get hurt since she's blind and little. Yes, I did think about another dog for company...he gets along fine with other dogs...but he's not young, about 11, and I don't want to see him get sick, and lose him, leaving the new one alone. My health is bad, so I would have to get an older, quieter one, which is another issue. When the other 2 died, I had all of them there together in the vet room, so they wouldn't just think their family member disappeared, if they realize their friend died, it's a little easier for them to accept. So glad your dog will be OK...losing 2 of my family so close together is HARD.

I was so happy for them.i cried happy tears.....

I got very emotional watching this video of Diesel, a beautiful Border Collie.....I had a purebred GORGEOUS Collie named Lassie that my Mom and Dad bought for my Birthday. Collies are wonderful and loving dogs.

The hardest part of having dogs is that they don’t live as long as we do…we’ve been through this so many times. We continue to adopt because the joy of having these wonderful dog people is worth it. I personally believe that the grief I feel when they die honors the love we’ve had for each other.

Aww I lost my dog before Christmas last year, she started with shaking her head a lot, her head tilted to the side and she lost 6 pounds in 3 months. She had health check in October which it cam back really good, nothing wrong, then it turned dramtically after, the same vet in December was so shock, we believe she had a brain tumor at 11 years old (I am not a vet but I can tell if something is really bad) Glad diesel results came back good, hope he is well now, I’m from the uk and I watch the show

Vestibular syndrome is common in old dogs. It is hard: many recover, some relapse, some have a remaining head tilt but no longer experience rapid eye movement or nausea. So hard to wait to see if it gets better. I've had a number of my dogs recover and have a few more active, happy, good years.

Poor dogo 😢😢

It's about time the program featured Gerardo! Really? He's a very gentle, good veterinarian!!!!!

Gerardo is what we MoTs call a mensch. What a nice man and caring vet.

Gerardo you have your beautiful boy for a little longer , lucky fella Diesel. Enjoy these last glorious days of summer. All is well with the world at this time. God bless you little family.

I have three "older" dogs. I dread the day I have to make really hard decisions.

So awesome that DIESEL is doing better 🐶❤️🙏🏻

So Happy for Diesel and his doctor parents. Beautiful dog and Beautiful family!

I'm so happy for you 💓

Poor disel -

We had several border collies on the farm they are the best

I am very very happy he is ok giving big hugs from the USA keep up the good work

LOKAH SAMASTAH SUKHINO BHAVANTU is a Sanskrit phrase that translates to "may all beings everywhere be happy and free and may the thoughts words and actions of my own life contribute in some way towards that happiness and freedom for all" 💚👽🛸🐱🐶🐄🐷🐔🐳🐬🦜🦚🍀🍄🌎

Sending lots of Love to your BC! I have a BC too and she too is 13 and she is going going strong!

I am so happy he was alright! I must admit you kept it together really well. I was reduced to tears. I know exactly how you were feeling. After 20 years when I lost my Tara I finally got a new puppy. Dachshund called Slinky. Be happy and enjoy the beach, mine loves it too. Something about the beach they love xxxx

Thank you for sharing this. Our almost 14 year old border collie just got deaf and partially blind and experiences same instability problems. We were given the diagnosis Horner disease after a stress dog attack some time ago. We are having a hard time too and hate to see the stage of life our beloved dog is in now and try to maximise TLC as you do. Wishing you and everyone with dog health issues the best, greetings from Belgium.

Diesel 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

That is sooooooooooo good

There is more important things than a dog

I had a cat with chronic vestibular disease. It was an infection that kept recurring. So he would go on a course of antibiotics and steroids and it would be taken care of within a week. And it would pop up every year or so and not a big deal at all.

This is so sad about Diesel. For any family

What would any of us do without the compassion and love our pet's caregivers give to your loved ones? Love to you, Doc!!!

NYC'S, MIGUEL REYNOSO, GREETINGS FROM NEW YORK CITY.

Blessings 🇨🇦🐘🍁🐕🙏

Such a beautiful dog!

I can understand the fear for his dog. The 17 year old dalmatian / pointer mixed breed of my father disappeared from his allotment garden a week ago. Now we're scared that he hid somewhere to die.

My 15 year old min pin we think have liver cancer my 3 year old takes care of her I hope jubilee can deal and me losing her when flash got jelly beans caught in her teeth jubilee tried showing her how to unstick her teeth 😂

I understand the grief, and I hate losing a pet as they always seem harder to get over, even losing a close relative is not that hard. I only know that going from someone who follows you everywhere and just offers such constant love to then suddenly not being there is almost impossible to get over. The first dog I lost, a lab, I lost 21 years ago and there are still days that I will go to do something and look up expecting to see his face I guess because what I was doing reminded me, I do not really know but it very difficult. Its also very difficult for other pets when one is lost. We had two dogs when I lost my first, and my second dog just never understood why we suddenly rushed out to take our older dog on what, I guess the younger one surmised, was just a turn to go to the store, and when I did come home I came home without him and very upset. Our younger dog. a mastiff, knew I was upset but not what about and did his usual to offer comfort by we realized very quickly that he too was looking for his buddy who had been with him ever day since we brought him home at 8 weeks. He would watch out the window and take time smelling around the back yard looking for signs of him and after a week he started showing signs of depression. Our vet said he knew we probably were not ready but he really did not want to use medication but he though a new dog was the answer. He was afraid if we waited too long our dog would get to depressed to be too happy about a new mate and suggested that we not get a really young puppy but an older puppy, if of a large breed or one full grown who could handle becoming the sibling of a mastiff as play was what the mastiff needed. That was when we got our six month old lab/newfie mix and the change in our mastiff was evident within a day, he really needed a friend. We already had a new puppy in the house when we lost our Mastiff at age 15 but that time I took his buddy to the vets with him hoping hatht he would at least have some understanding and not be as confused as out mastiff was when we left with he buddy one day and did not bring him back. I did the same when the lab/newfie passed and that made it easier for the survivor both times. Sadly, because of Covid we have not been able to yet get a new dog to join the one we have left but given that, again due o Covid, she has not had a minute in the house alone and had someone to follow around or snuggle with or sleep on their feet under our desk, so I think that helped - almost too much as some days I think she wishes less people were around sometimes so she was not challenged with giving us at all the same amount of attention. Our youngest, currently only, dog is a border collie mix. She actually at the first of the year suddenly started having repeated balance problems and we went through all the tests possible to try and find out why, and as she is only 7 we were really think it was something bad as she was a bit young to have geriatric vestibular disease. Everything came out negative for any issues and basically we were left with the only thing there is no way to rule out which was vestibular disease. She was put on medication and got better and then had a few more episodes, and got better but it really seemed like the medication was not anywhere near as her vets expected. I am an acupuncturist and usually treat animals with pain issues, and muscular skeleton issues but we decided that it certainly might not hurt to try it. It was sort of hard to find any information where its been tried on canines either because no one has or no ones written much up on it, and to decide what points to use I had to use guides for treatment of humans with balance and vestibular issues, and convert the points to treat to what would be the same or similar nerve bundles on a canine. We had really good success and have kept it up even weaning her off her medication while continuing the acupuncture. Of course, it could be that she was about to get over it when we started and its all coincidence but after she has had the same length of treatment they do for humans we will stop and see what happens. If it returns we plan on trying the acupuncture first and may be have a better idea if it is therapeutic in these cases.

My senior Westie was having episode too but was not bad as diesel. It took few days and he was back to normal. I gave cbd treat ,it helps a lot.

I also had very bad dizziness. There were crystals in one ear. I had physical therapy and I am better.

Dr. Gerardo must be really strong to be able to carry such a big sized dog with so much ease .

Old Age goes on in many ways. He'll be around for some time more. AREN'T YOU LUCKY.. 🤗💞😽

I heart goes out to you🙏
