ok...so this is a smidge embarrassing...Marley has a flea allergy. We had NO idea he even had fleas!! None of our 4 furbabies have any symptoms of...
Well...last night I came home to this- 2nd photo is this morning. His shot went fine both last night and this morning. He was eating ok too....
Thanks! He is short hair, but his coat is fairly thick I guess. I never thought of trimming the hair, that might be a good idea. No discharge that...
Saturday is not Christmas Eve though. I'm an atheist anyway so he comes first before anything else. :) I bought coconut oil today and plan on using...
I can't get him into the vet now until Saturday and he gets so incredibly stressed out (vomiting/peeing) that I hate to bring him. The vet said she...
Ok so honestly I totally forgot to get coconut oil or hydrocortisone. It's now two weeks later and it looks worse. (I'll post another photo later)....
It was in response to the other comment, so lick. I edited it. It was a typo.
Someone on the FB group mentioned Coconut Oil and I spoke with our vet who said Cortisone Cream...I guess I'll try both...
It's not where we inject him. He doesn't try to lick it. So far it seems it doesn't bother him
This is what it looks like
Marley has a spot on his back where it looks like the fur is going away...the skin looks quite red. :( Anyone have anything like this happen? Thanks!
That's the thing, Marley doesn't really like us to pet him. LOL. Last night I was trying to give him some head scratches. He pushed my arm away...
UPDATE: Marley bit me the next morning when I tried to test him (because I screwed up the test strip and had to poke him like 3 times.) :( Anyway,...
What are good low carb treats to try?
Just tried a before bedtime test...he is not letting me do it. He's so fidgety and not relaxed (which is how I thought he'd be the first...
Hi all! Just tested Marley for the first time! It was way easier than I thought it would be! He was 280...which I'm happy with but he hasn't eaten...
It was just over 400 when he was diagnosed. And that's with spiking from stress. Vet didn't want to rush to insulin. We saw a great improvement...
I'd like to start testing now before he even goes back to vet to be put on insulin...what do you think is best? Just to get some readings throughout...
Our boy Marley is 8 and was diagnosed with diabetes about a year ago. We immediately stopped all dry food and only give him low carb canned food....
