Rocky And I are back from the vets, Rocky must have sat on something, and got an allergic reaction.The vet seems to think, that he has had this problem for a while. Unfortunately, we didnt know he was having a reaction, this weekeneds licking/itching was due to an Infection that had set in. What we saw, and this morning smelled was a result of him getting an infection in his back legs. So the vet gave him an Ijnection of antibiotics, and he has to take Cephalexin pills for the next 10 days. cost of total vet visit was 34$! I love my vet! he he he!

I was also able to get a Weight on rocky, he only weighs 128.7 pounds! The vet said he should at least be around 150. Even with his arthritis, which is doing very well. So we are still feeding him more food, until his weight is back where it should be. I will feel better once i can no longer feel his spine.

Rocky was a very good boy, and let the vet do everything he needed to without any problems, you could tell he wasnt enjoying himself, but i am very proud of him. My work is paying off! woohoo!

at the vet we got to meet a very aorable 9 week old female Saint!! She was the cutest thing in the world, and Rocky just loved her. We also got to meet, a Blue and Rust Doberman puppy!!! I had never seen one before, an it was the cutest thing ever. The poor thing was shivering the whole time we were there!

Rocky has an appointment today at 10:30 for the vet. I hope he can figure out what is wrong, and my poor baby can stop itching. Poor baby is so unhappy. :(

I got Rocky 3 weeks ago, from an older gentleman who could no longer care for him. The only things that have changed since i got him, was changing his dog food, as his owner was feeding a low quality kibble, I have also used frontline on him, the first week, to insure no fleas, I have also given him a bath, he got his rabies vaccine two weeks ago, and that is it.

oh and his ears are not itchy at all.

Well i was able to look at his belly just a little, by his genitals, and it seems like he has little red spots, like a rash??? He dosent have any fleas i have checked him vigorously, and have had him on frontline since day one. I was thinking hot spot as well, but am just not sure. I have tons of anti itch sprays for dogs, and have spayed him, but i cant get to the sppots he is licking/itching the worst, he just wont let me. The worst spot seem s to be inside of his back legs, and the back of his legs under his tail. I feel so bad for him! I hate to see my babies suffer!
