Remember I mentioned earlier Ranger had yeast infection in his ears? Yeah, the sweet, looking buddy of ours, who has the most patience amongst the three of them, is getting too much attention from us. DB is still playing vet in our household.
You can see how red his ear is. I guess the picture is not too good – too much flash which makes it yellow! DB has to squirt some ear drops in to each ear, but the vet tech forgot to include the squirter with the bottle of ear drops. So we had to make do with a syringe, of course without the needle. He has to squirt the drops in every day and I have to clean his ears every week. DB said he never had to do any of these with his previous dogs. I told him Ranger is just one of a kind which makes him so special. His ears are getting better and his itching with the different medication is working quite good, at least it looks tolerable than before.
Yeah, this guy is just panting away in this hot sticky weather. We had the air-condition on most of the days and guess where these three boys will be at? Either on top of the vent or laying against the wall next to the vents. Why does it have to be so sticky in Minnesota?? And the skeeters are disgusting.
DB and I are wondering if the medication Ranger are taking is making him pant so much. I know Predisone does, but the antibiotics and other non-steroid meds for his itchiness shouldnt. Hhmmm, I still think he’s getting old and cannot tolerate heat anymore.
