Dugan the Dog goes to the Doctor

Whoodathunk! Dugan has allergies. Over the last months we have noticed that Dugan would spend some of his spare time licking his front paws. More recently he started to chew between his toes, so something had to be done.

Dugan likes to go places, even to the Vets. Dugan goes to the Aberdeen Animal Hospital for his medical care, and all the staff know who Dugan is and they always give him a friendly greeting. The Vet said that allergies are common in dogs and typical symptoms are feet chewing, scratching, licking, rashes. The Doc gave Dugan a cortisone shot and said we should give him fish oil each day along with benadryl. This should relieve the itching sensations and allow him to heal the small sores between his toes.


Hey Master, maybe you had better heft me up on the examination table before the Doc comes in!


I hear friends out there!


Whats all this stuff?


Dugan gets off the scale, he lost a little weight due to summer heat.

Hope he's feeling tip-top soon.

Good thing he likes going to the vet - he'd be pretty tough to drag in the vets office if he was afraid!
