Hi All !!!!


Gia is doing a lot better,she's moving around & back to her old self
Her skin is very red almost blk & blu but the vet told me it would be that way until she's done with treatment. the dip seems to have changed her texture of her coat. It's very dry and cotton looking & I also noticed when I comb her she is shedding a lot more than usually (but I can't treat her with anything, no oils, no baths, no nothing)
Well we decided to get her brother today based on the fact that Chewy was paid for & Gia was feeling much better
First things first

His plane was over 4 hrs late . Poor thing was in a carrier from 10am this morning until 7:30pm tonight

He got car sick on the way home or maybe he got sick from being on the plane that long

He smelled like he hadn't been washed since he was born (which was May 9th), the smell almost made me puke
Soon as I got him home I gave him some food & off to the bath he went.
He ate a little but not a lot I also gave him some nutrical (spelling)

As I was blow drying him I noticed his hair was very thin and he seemed to be suffering from the same thing Gia has (demodex) His scalp was very red
I had called the breeder before he left in the morning (6:45am) because she had not responded to my emails about Gia or Chewy's departure verification & she told me he was on meds for some kind of skin irritation but I didn't think it was this bad. His whole belly and thighs are completely red

Chewy seems very withdrawn, when I got Gia she was all over the place , very friendly Chewy is the complete opposite

I know he's in a new environment & he needs to adjust but something just isn't smelling right, he seems so sad

I'm taking him to the same vet I took Gia to first thing in the morning so he can get on the right meds (because the med that was sent with him (the pink kind that smell like bubble gum) I don't think is going to cut it) & I also want to take him just to make sure he's okay . Looking at his shot record it doesn't even seem like he's had a stole sample done before

I kept Gia & Chewy separated for tonight. With Gia's resistance being down I don't want her to pick up anything if Chewy does have anything.

Hopefully we can get him started with treatments & they both can be 100% & happy
