Josie is definitely the poster girl for why vet visits should never be put off. A simple problem was allowed to fester and become a huge problem. So much pain and permanent damage could have been avoided easily.
It is amazing to me how Yorkies and other dogs endure these horrors. The photos you posted on Facebook before she was completely cleaned up made me cry -- to think she could still be smiling despite all of her pain. Although, people often use that as further excuse to avoid the vet: 'she's still playing, and eating, blah blah blah."
Max would eat and go for walks even if he was near death. If something is not right, vet time.
