To make the situation even more fun and exciting, Sugar was also diagnosed with a double ear infection while we were there about his leg. This was a huge surprise because his ears look perfectly healthy to the naked eye and have no smell and hadn't seem to be bothering him at all. I only mentioned his ears to the vet because a few times when he was yelping he would act like he was going to scratch at his right ear. I assumed he was trying to figure out what to do with his painful leg. So he's also being treated for that. He whimpers when I put the drops in so a part of me wonders if some of his crying isn't due to his ear which I have to treat for two weeks. Before Thursday he had not shown ANY signs of ear problems and his ears look perfectly healthy.
