Sometimes, they get like an abcess. My son had a couple of cats that got it before. Ask the vet about that.......I can't remember what they called it.

Poor baby!! Icing it is probably a good idea. Hope he's not in any pain. Just keep an eye on him.

STILL? Awww, poor Recon! Yes do let us know what the vet says! Poor boy, that must be so uncomfortable!

red98vett · 07-28-2005, 05:07 AM

I was wondering how Recon is doing Kelly - is his swelling down on his nose ? Did you go to the vet ?

Poor baby - I keep seeing his little swollen nose and hoping the swelling went down on it's own....

jennifermcb · 07-28-2005, 05:14 AM

Poor Recon! He looks miserable.

Here's sending good thoughts your way. I hope ya'll get some good news from the vet.

JCarlson2004 · 07-28-2005, 05:46 AM

Maybe a mosquito? I hope little (or should I say big hee hee) Recon feels better soon! It's no fun to be sickies.

ReconsMomma · 07-30-2005, 07:17 PM

Sorry all, I forgot to update this to let you know what we found out.

first we took him to the vet and come to find out we weren't giving him enough benadryl. We were giving him enough for say, Memphis. I felt so guilty, I just didn't want to over dose him. Vet said to give him one adult benadryl every 4 hours. Said he had multiple small bites on his muzzle. Thought it was either earwigs (EWWWWWW) or ants.

So I was out in the yard picking up poo and sticks getting ready to mow and I found an area of my yard that is full of ant hills. I stepped on the hills ( I know Im mean) and before too long the little ***tards were biting me. We figure that when Recon was out on his last night patrol of the yard before bed he must have gotten into the ants and we didn't notice anything and the full affect of them was when we got up in the morning.

I bought some spray and sprayed the yard for them. So hopefully no more problems. Recon is himself again. In fact him and I did a fundraiser for the local rottie rescue that I deal with here today. It was a 10k run/walk with your dog.
