I just wanted to THANK you again for setting me on the right path. I took our dog to the vet. He had a fever of 104. We did a complete blood panel, awaiting results, as well as a test for tick-borne diseases.
And – to make it worse – he had a large foxtail embedded deep in his ear — poor guy. I’d be aggressive, too, with all that.
Your advice was perfect, and I’m hoping Walter feels better soon and that his behavior goes back to normal.
