Our POOR Puppy!
Our poor little Kitty dog has been sick for a while. She had these funky sores on her legs that the vet originally thought were racoon bites. So, we treated her with three different types of anitbiotic over the past 5 months, but to no avail. We finally stopped going to the vet, hoping it would "run it's course." But, the sores seemed to spread. Recently, we saw that where the sores were the most heavily concentrated - her legs - she was actually losing her hair! We took her back to the vet and they decided to shave her down to the skin, hoping that would help heal these sores. Since no groomers would touch her with the sores, she has looked pretty mangy since March. Well - I don't know if this is much better, but we hope it will help her get better. You can see that she is just covered with those nasty sores! They are running a biopsy, trying to figure out what is up with our little pooch. The vet thought it could be some parasite they've not encountered before or.... doggy Lupus! So, we wait for a week to find out the fate of our little Kitty. We are so sad for her, but at the same time we love (and laugh at) our little naked dog - she shivers constantly!

This could only happen to you Camille... just can't figure it out. Maybe Kitty has ecoli too. :)
Poor Kitty! We hope they find out what is wrong SOON. Be sure and keep us posted.
Hope everyone else is doing good in your family. We have had the past four days off and it has been great!! Back to work tomorrow though.
Much love to you all -

She really does blend in when it rains. :) I hope she gets better. She's going to need some clothes until her fur grows back.
