Ally *Really* Needs to Be a Veterinarian

I took Dala to the vet yet again. Her chin is just awful! She has really bad red bumps (just like people acne but bigger) and the vet said it's a really deep infection. We clean her chin twice a day, clean her water bowl every day, use a clean paper plate every meal......Argggg! So today they gave her an antibiotic injection that lasts 7 days. The only thing that has changed at about the same time as the acne appeared is that we started using Pill Pockets. So we're going to stop using those to give her the medicine (which sucks because she looooves them) but she'll eat cream-cheese-coated-medicine just as good. The vet said if it isn't getting better in 2 weeks that we'll have to start looking for possible allergies. Which would most likely be a food allergy, except it's the same food she's eaten for years.

  1. i wish i had been a vet, too. so does paul. at the time i thought i was too squeamish/too sensitive to be a vet, but after i worked at petsmart i realized im not actually that squeamish.
