Just Got Back From The Vet - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Midge5353 · 07-06-2005, 03:16 PM

I just got back from the vet. TJ had an appointment at 6:00. He did not have fun! He had a few earmites so Dr. Bogdan had to flush his ears and give him Revolution. He hates it when people go anywhere near his ears and he was not happy! The shots were a whole different story. TJ doesn't make too much noise ever, but today, when he got his two shots, he was screaming! I feel bad because I am not aloud to touch him or comfort him because of the Revolution. Oh, and we scheduled his neutering appointment.

He is getting neutered on August 10.

I am already worried about him and it's a month away!!!!

But, I know it is for the best.

Well, I just thought I would let everyone know that we got back from the vet. LOL

Well, my vet said that TJ probably got them from his mom. I don't know how she got them. Dr. Bogdan said that ear mites don't usually travel from one dog to another unless the dogs are ALWAYS laying side by side and cleaning out each other's ears (like a mama dog and her puppies)

TJ thanks you for the kisses and hugs.

Awwww, I hope he feels better soon too!

Poor baby - At least ear mites are easily taken care of - itchy and gross - but the medicine should clear them right up ...I think some breeders really don't treat their puppies for them cause Chanel came to us with them also -

It so funny how some are so funny about their ears ..Cheri hates me touching hers - but will let me trim them - and Chanel can lay in my lap ....and let me stick my fingers in her ears and tickle her - and she loves it ? Weird !

What a big boy TJ is. Buddha had his neuter post op today and it was great. We are keeping the onesie and the bellyband on him so he doesn't have to wear the dreaded "Cone" collar!! Ugh

Hope TJ gets rid of the itchies soon. One of my Biewers came with ear mites. I elected to treat all of my crew. There is a great med that is used off label for dogs but is labelled for cats. One tube in each ear and that is it. No flushing or using meds for several days. And, it worked like a charm. It would have been really hard dosing 14 ears.. mine hate ear cleaning too..

That is the stuff that the vet treated Roxy with.

Seems to have. I will have her check them again to see if they are all cleared up. I did let the breeder know and she was treating everyone else.

When he figures out that his ears don't itch and hurt anymore, he will forget about the shots. Now next month, better get him some of his favorite treats and new toys, so he won't think about what is missing behind him.

Thanks for all of your replies. TJ is sleeping right now (in his litter box

) For some reason, he enjoys sleeping in it more than going potty in it.

I don't really care, as long as he is feeling better. He seems a little bit lethargic, but the vet said that I should expect that. My vet is so great and I am so glad that I found him.
