Also got her annual bloodwork done, heartworm test, heartguard plus, and her nails did. LOL she was such a good girl. So far no scratching yet since she got the shot.
Oh also that bump on her elbow, was a tick! Omg  it was there a long time! I had no idea. Never seen one in real life before.
So Dr wants to see her again in 3 wks to follow up. I really like this hospital. Dr stayed explaining options and everything for nearly an hour.
For a bit over $300 not too bad. I felt like we were taken good care of. |
I hope this treatment works and you can find some relief for Uni, constant itching must be so horrible. My foster is on Wellness simple solutions, it has only 4 or so ingredients, so it's easy to figure out some of the safe foods.
