Poorly Paw - Part 2

Last Tuesday I had a poorly paw so I had to go to the vets and get some antibiotics.

…...........But do you know what?............. My antibiotics aren't working and I've still got a poorly paw. Ann thinks my abscess is getting bigger and I've also started to lick it quite a lot, so back to the vets I went.  And this time I got to see the very lovely Jonathan. Yay!

I love Jonathan. He is the bestest vet ever. Before he looked at my poorly paw, he stroked me, he chatted to me and he told me what a gorgeous little collie I was. Ann was worried that he'd have to cut my nasty abscess off, but he's just given me more antibiotics and some steroid type tiny pills that I have to take twice a day. I have to stop taking my 'apoquel' which I take every day because I'm always scratching a lot.................... and if I start licking my poorly paw lots I have to wear horrid cone collar. Booohoo! But I can still go swimming as long as Ann washes my paw afterwards. Yay!

To be honest my nasty abscess looks very, very nasty. But Jonathan squeezed it, poked it, prodded it and it really didn't bother me. Ann was worried that it would burst on one of my big long walks and loads of blood would spurt out and then I would be in pain. But Jonathan doesn't seem to think that will happen. He says it's quite hard and more like a little cyst?! Jonathan seems quite confident that extra antibiotics and my little white pills will do the trick. Yay!

…...................And do you know what?................... I got loads of grated cheese on my dinner tonight so I gobbled up all my pills in super quick time. Yay!

PS – Ann loves Jonathan almost as much as I do. She has to phone him tomorrow to let him know if there's been any change in me. Just how caring is that???
