I was told Ralphie had staph infection. He was on 2 different meds for 40 days and he seemed to have cleared up for about 3 or 4 weeks. And now, the bumps are back. Either he has staph again or he's allergic to the Hill's U/D prescription food, which I hate. I have been adding Missing Link to his diet and his coat is very silky again. It was dry and flaky and bumpy before.
Unfortunately, I cannot change his food because of his stone problems. ONe surgery was enough for me. I was told I could change his food to whatever I wanted if he remained on special medication for the rest of his life, and that's not what I want to do either. So I'm in the middle again.
