Hatti at the Vets again!
Took Sam (Brother's lab.) to vets yesterday and today was Hatti's turn!!!!! Sam has very inflammed ears and Hatti has infection in both ears
Both have been given ear drops. I have no problems putting them into Hatti's ears but Sam is a nightmare-he fights me all the way, so its a daily visit to the vets for him for a Nurse to put them in while I hold him. Have to do this because if the drops don't go right down he's going to really suffer with his ears.Didn't think I would be visiting them so soon again!

(Also has food allergy!) Before she started injections she used to be scratching herself all the time and chewing at her legs and paws making them bleed-doesn't really do any of this now thanks to the injections
