Well I guess baby is kinda pushing it considering Oscar will turn the big 5 on May 18! But He'll always be my baby. I've had dogs growing up but Oscar is my first "real" dog. Yes, I spoil him rotten but that's my prerogative.
Intro Bobby Brown
Along with alot of love, attention, long walks & lots of treats I also shower him w/crazy concern. Once Paul took him out for a late walk & he came back home w/a bloody paw. I instantly freaked out & rushed him to the vet. It was already after hours so I paid $40 extra for a home visit. Turns out his pretty little paws weren't use to hard pavement & it sliced them open. Poor baaabyyy!
Endless love.
I've always felt a little weary with our Vet. He was always "rough" with Oscar & Sadie. Never once said hi to them or take the time to get along w/them. Sounds funny but that's a huge plus. Who wants to see somebody they're afraid of? On each visit Oscar & Sadie would tremble the moment I opened the vet door & Sadie would growl at Dr. Sid. The last straw was Molly's initial visit. She was nervous but a very good patient. Instead of taking the time to calm her nerves Dr. Sid was harsh & even pulled on her leash when she didn't instantly follow me outside the office.
PISSED THE HELL OUT OF ME!
So I remembered awhile back our friend recommended his vet & decided to take a chance. Thank goodness we did! This past Sunday I noticed a bump on the outside of his left ear. I made a trip to the new Vet but they were closed for the weekend. :( So I called on Monday & made an appt.
The vet was really nice & gentle with Oscar. She inspected his bumps (he now has 4) & said it could be an allergic reaction to a fly or another bug bite. He's to take medication for the next two weeks. If it doesn't improve within the two weeks OR if it worsen within the next couple of days we have to take him back for a biopsy. :(
Of course I'm hoping for the best & that it is just an allergic reaction but there's the horror in having to wait.
Thank you for reading & understanding I'm a HUGE crazy dog lover that tends to freak out before it's necessary.
How cute is this face?!
