Week 71 - My Sunday Photo

Bob has some kind of skin infection. Vet ruled out mites, ticks, fleas and has taken a biopsy, says probably not from the lakes as we go every week, but I changed his shampoo 2 weeks ago and it could also be from the rat that has been living in one of the out buildings. Bob has also been losing weight and his ribs are sticking through, have to go back next week for results, weigh him and see if he needs more steroid injections. In the meantime despite not being able to walk forwards and staring at walls until we turn him round, he's still wagging his tail.

  1. Poor Bob! I hope it's nothing serious and he's putting on weight and back to full health soon.
    I feel a bit sorry for him in the 'cone of shame' :(

  6. Hi Suzanne, I hope you get to the bottom of whatever is ailing Bob soon. Dogs are funny when they have to wear the collar, ours would also stand there staring at the wall until someone moved him. I was funny.
