All is well in The Majestic Mr Monty's World!! I talked to the vet and Panacur is not a strong antibiotic so Mr Monty is just fine. He has his final dose tomorrow and then we send a poop sample in on Saturday. So by next Wednesday ... hopefully he will be able to rejoin this 4 legged friend population! Seems so weird to be "keeping him home" when the weather has been fantastic here in Vancouver and I just want to be out with all my other peeps and their dogs. Now that I have a dog... lol.
He does NOT like the medicine at all not even one little bit. I basically have to cinch him in a towel and hold him like a football and his wee head under his chin while my boyfriend poses waiting for Monty to growl and yip so he can get the syringe in and give a lil squirt. The medicine tastes awful. Monty doesn't like anyone going near his mouth to begin with. He isn't very food motivated but I did find some freeze dried liver treats that he loves. So after the final squirt, I cuddle him in super close for a second and while he is still all wrapped up Tom gives him a treat. Then he bounces out of the towel and we love him up proper. Smile. |
