We had to take Squeaky to the Vet yesterday - he had started scratching about a week or so ago - and the medicine he was taking wasn't helping. I'm looking at our charges and they charged $32.00 for the Skin Scraping. The Vet said that there were two types of mites and one was difficult to see so she used a product called Revolution($17.50). It works like the Frontline but it's for the mites also. She has taken away all of his treats and his regular dry food (Royal Canin Yorkshire 28)and put him on Hill's Prescription Diet - Duck and Potato. I got a can of wet food to make "meatballs" to give him in the place of the treats. This is our first day and so far, no scratching. I'm keeping my fingers crossed because Squeaky nor I could go thru another day of the scratching. He was miserable and when he's miserable and I can't fix it for him, I get upset...I'll cry and he'll lick my tears...who's comforting who????
Good luck with your baby... |
