| Harley lost a few small patches of hair because he was infested with lice so bad for so long. Make sure she doesn't have any bugs! |

| I took her to the Vet this morning, the vet says it's just hair growing in since she is still a puppy. I will keep a check on it.....I'm very irritated with the Vet, her nursing asst. didn't read my puppy chart and to see that she was vaccinated Monday 1/21, and she vaccinated her again for distemper..... Thanks! |
