Jane, how is Sherlock?
Now that I am caught up....
Thank you DRs Td, Cilla, George, Jose, TCB, Laura, & Kerry.
Sherlock received a steroid injection, prednisone pills & EXTREMELY expensive antibiotics. He definitely needed to be seen tonight. Hopefully the shot will speed things up & we will see improvement by tomorrow. I can't take him hiking until the large blisters heal.
We will likely never know what caused the contact dermatitis. If we had see the beginnings of it last night we could have prevented him from scratching & making it so bad.
We never expected it to continue swelling so much. If it hadn't been a Friday I wouldn't have called the vet on her cell phone to see if she would be in tomorrow. It's a good thing I did. It is really nice she has told us to call on her cell phone after hours if we need her.
