Oh my goodness, I'm sorry - not laughing at the situation but I just had to giggle when I read what you wrote about jinxing him because you named him
Lucky, LOL! That was cute
Hehe.
So Lucky was on a pill for allergies, a pill for Hypothyroidism, as well as an oral shot (Ivomectin) for allergies? Is that correct? Hmmmm....I wonder if Tatum getting an oral shot for her allergies would also help?
I just HATE seeing her go crazy with the itching and the chewing of her little paws....I wish there was more that I could do to help her
But oh boy - I hope she doesn't gain anymore weight
She is already SUCH a chunk as it is lol...and I am actually trying to get her to LOSE some. She is just so tiny, and she also has LP (Luxating Patella) in both back legs so any extra weight is not good for her. Man....it is sooo hard trying to tackle all of these issues at once
P.S. - I also had a Cocker Spaniel, however, she passed away back in January of '06. You thought Lucky was chubby at 40 lbs - my Cocker weighed 52!!!!!!
