Bam Bam

Grandma Tay told us Bamz has been limping for the past few days, been refusing to put down her right hind leg..

So we played the waiting game as westies have a common aliment of dislocating their joints and it pops back after awhile... Sundays are usually her crazy day as everyone will be home and she will play amok with the girls... but it didn't get any make any difference on sunday, so bells rang and we went full speed ahead to get her treated..

So today, I spend 4 hours shuttling the princess to the vet, had to travel to another place to get Xray and back to her vet.. shagged. Lucky no fracture or hairline visibly, though her leg is 1.5 times more swollen than the other side. Med were give and we gotta monitor the princess for 2 weeks and NO walks.. boo hoo for her

Then I got the vet to shave off her fur for her rashes was horrendous! for she was scratching and scratching...westies and their skin issues!!
clearly stressed about her visit to the vet
Her horrendous skin rash below her chin.. no thanks to her drinking and scratching habits
Manja!!! She had to stick to DD T .. for he was going on and on about how much he loves her and "poor thing X 1000"
opps.. k i never knew my iphone can take nice photos.. its quite crappy at times, but when I opened in large screen and was pleasantly surprised. (on our way back to the grands)

Aiyo poor bam bam! As with all white fur dogs (according to this dermatologist vet we brought Frosty to visit in USA) My gosh they seem to always have the same problem! Sigh... Frosty too, but less severe ba... Might wanna try Animal Recovery Centre they are pretty good.
