[Dailydrool] Da Nose doesnt always know

[kacy green]

As a recap, I asked for advice earlier this week because Rupert was pawing
at his nose to the point where he'd whimper. We considered it to maybe be a
flea bite but then again, maybe be a evil foxtail. Everyone advised us to
seek out the vet since foxtails can get worse rather quickly.

He saw the vetman this morning. They said there is nothing up there. They
think it might be allegies and recommended he be given an antihistamine for
the season. They also suspected it could be a tooth ache since his teeth are
pretty bad and we haven't done a cleaning since we adopted him (may 08).

So, for now he's ok. But we are gonna do some budgeting and get him in for
his toofers asap, since I too suspect that is most likely the issue. When we
adopted him the rescue told me that they had planned to do a cleaning with
possible extractions but he became very sick and the cleaning never got
done. They recommended we get one done asap and of course, slacker pawrents
that we are, we just never got it done. So its now officially on the to-do
list.

Thanks to all who responded, we dont know where we'd be without our drool
fam!
Drool to all,
Kacy w/Cow and Ru
