I was kind of disappointed yesterday when I took my lover boy BARC Gulliver to the Vet's. To begin with I could hardly force him inside. We didn't see our regular vet. The first thing the vet did was anal temp. which didn't make Gully fond of her. She didn't think once about the spider bite idea. She only wanted me to rescheadule for dental exrays under anethesia.
Office visit $30, antibotics (which I requested!)$49! I'm not going to start any med's before getting another opinion. Gully is just over one year. I haven't been able to see or feel anything foreign. The vet didn't even try to look or feel. I think she was afraid of him. I fully expected her to excise the lump, which I think is a hematoma. He remains the same happy, playful, eating normally, and with a lump in his upper lip! I think I'll call oura friend, Ray Nachreiner, and get his opinion. Ray and Martha were on sebatical in Austria last year. Ray (DVM MSU Proff) wrote a recent article from his study on Berners. I hate to take advantage of professional friends, BUT! I think I am going to go back to a "home vet" too. Happy Trails, Jeannie in Michigan Lumpy Gully, Greta, and Soph forever __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
