and... The Mo... Mocha, my 9 year old chihuahua.
So it's been a few months since I've updated. We've temporarily moved back home and although the house is filled with little dogs, we have worked out a great routine and everyone seems happy. I am happy that the dogs get along very well and that someone is mostly home with them too. However, Pookie, Bella, and Callie love their mid-afternoon naps! They run to their crates around one pm for about a two hour nap! It's so funny!
Callie & Bella are in great health. Pookie had been pretty stable but then when the fluconazole ran out, she started licking furiously at her paws. She developed several very bad sores that looked so terrible. Inbetween her toes gets so crusty and scaley. The comedones are still there too. She was on antibiotics for two weeks, back on fluconzole for life most likley, and a shot of cortisone about 2.5 weeks ago. My vet is going to suggest we see a vet dermotologist just to see if he/she has any other ideas. Other than the licking -- which I usually make her wear booties to avoid that - she's a happy dog! She runs, plays alot, loves her sisters, and toys... and poop! UGH! Sometimes she burps in my face and it's sooo gross! I have to figure out a way to get her to stop that!! Love her soo much though... she's a sweetheart. We go for recheck Tuesday.
I've added a picture of Mocha-moo too. She's my baby. My MooMoo. She's so happy I am back home... she sleeps in my bed... sits on the couch with me like we used to do at night... I am happy to have her with me again and I don't think I will leave her with my parents when we move. I did take her to my old apt but she barked during the day and someone complained so I had to let her go back home where she seemed more comfy anyway. She's having her teeth cleaned Tuesday. Worries me because she's older, heavy... and I just worry about losing her. I'm sure everything will be fine. Her eye seems better too but not 100%... never really got a final diagnosis from the opthamologist vet... and since she's not squinting, then that is good he said. All the tests he ran were negative so he said to bring her back when she squinted... and she hasn't. Her eye is just a little smaller now and watery... shrug...
Anyway, that's my quick update...
