He's been on Hill's I/D GI for the past year but Friday the vet changed him to Hill's I/D Low Fat and he seems to be doing better. He's had breakfast today and demanded a "Seek Treat" session twice in the last 30 minutes where I hide his kibble around the house while he waits on the couch and he goes and seeks it out, crunches it down. I didn't know if he'd accept that low fat food made mostly of grains and easily-digestible things as his treats but he does. I looked at the ingredients of the Hill's and it's not too impressive but anything that will help him not be sick is what it takes. He's about 90% himself today but still lacking his full force zest for life and fun.

It's good to know a lot of dogs rub their face and I've had others do that but not Scotty or Jilly. But he doe it only sporadically and not for very long and at the same times - when I go to the restroom sometimes and sometimes on the doggie steps when he's waiting for me to get up and open the door to go outside. It seems more like a habit now. He won't just get up and go rub his face and he never does headpressing, drooling, circling or is uncoordinated or weak, etc. That Ginger video really shook me up last night after seeing that little thing rubbing her face as she did and pressing her little head, unable to just just up the stairs. She seemed to be suffering. If I were around a dog that acted like that, we'd be off to the vet right then.
