Four months ago when I brought home Dr. D Claw for the first time I realized I had a big problem on my hands. He was ripping out his fur from the neck back. Also, he had a bad case of fleas and was slightly under weight. Here is an update on my boy:
Fur ripping: This has gotten much better after the second dose of Revolution. IMHO I think he had a case of mites on top of the fleas and he needed Revolution to kill them. We've also introduced a big dose of Omega 3's into his diet every day, allowing the coat he did have to get into better shape. The dandruff he had seems to be going away. I'm also seeing some hair re-growth on his fanny and his legs. This is good news, because I was starting to call him Mr. Furry Boots, because of his bald little legs. Now we call him Mr. Patchy Boots.
Weight: He's gained a few pounds!
His eyes have also gotten brighter and his teeth look slightly better.
He's also turned into a love monster. He can't get enough attention or love out of DH or myself. I'm happy to give him what ever he wants. It's wonderful to see him in a game of "Heard of Wild Horses" with the other two.
Thanks everyone, just keep us in your thoughts as this journey continues.
