Glad to hear that you have a plan for Layla...that is sometimes the hardest part of dealing with any illness. I have no experience at all with what you are dealing with, but I'm wondering if there is an alternative to using a daily antibiotic to prevent infection...Is there a Holistic vet near you? As I said, because I don't have any experience, I don't want to suggest that you would be wrong to go with a permanent antibiotic, but I do know that sometimes antibiotics can have side-effects and frequent use can result in resistance. If there was a more holistic way to prevent infection it might be worth it, as an option after this infection gets cleared up. I've been seeing a Holistic Vet for skin/health conditions in my Schnauzer, and we've been able to decrease the need for other harsher treatments. Good luck with the new plan. Here's hoping that Layla gives those bacteria the boot quickly!! |
