this puppy can not keep himself away from the vet.
mac was itching himself so hard he was breaking skin. everytime he barked he shook his head like he had water in it. he was chewing his paw pads so hard he made sores under them.
i called the vet and she said "yes of course bring him in, that sounds like it could be mites or ringworm or fleas or a tick infestation, could be he is allergic to his food etc" she listed off about 20 things she thought it could be.
so of course i am worried, i deep clean my house, wash all the rugs, pillows, comforters, throw blankets, put away all his cloth toys. ( i convinced myself through online research that it was mites) the internet can be your worst enemy.
well i bring him in. . . and they acted like i was some crazy dog mom who brought their puppy in for everything.
the diagnosis: dry skin & seasonal allergies. just give him some benadryl.
the vet kept making comments like "he must of missed me, he just can't seem to stay away from this place"
anways, so i now feel like the crazy lady who brings their dog in because he sneezed.
thank goodness mac is healthy & i can bring back out my blankets! (its December in MN, i mean come on i need my fur blankets on me at all times)
