Ok, maybe I'm weird, but the maggot thing just doesn't gross me out that much! I'm SUCH a wimp about any injuries/sicknesses involving humans, but for some reason, I have a stomach and nerves of steel when it comes to animals!
Still, I understand why you hesitated to mention it!
To me, it's funny just because sweet Maddie is one of the LAST dogs you could imagine it happening to!
Bless her heart....she's been through a lot lately, hasn't she?!
I had NO idea that dogs could get toncillitus, and WHAT?! you sd it can sometimes be caused by unexpressed anal glands?! did I read correctly?! weeeeeeird!
What is the connection?
Sorry to say, if it was our dog, the family would probably be calling her "Maggie" instead of "Maddie".
I'm so sorry that this has happened to you and poor little Maddie! (and sorry that some creep has left you a creepy post, too!
)
