sigh, this saga continues;

Stella has broken out into what looks like hives on her belly and one leg.
I called the vet and she said it is likely a reaction to the antibiotics and to take her off them and monitor the pustules to make sure they don't flare up. I have some good oatmeal shampoo and I will keep her really clean.

The Bulldog vet emailed me and said she looked at Stella's x rays and her hips are shallow but that doesn't seem too out of the norm for a bulldog, but that she does see arthritis in her knees.
So, once I get the Dr. Pitcairn book I will look at what I can augment her nutrition for the arthritis.

And, her face is pink on the white parts, I don't really know what's going on with that.
I don't know if that's normal or a reaction to the antibiotics as well?

Thanks for your help everyone, you have no idea how much relief it brings me to know I have a group of such wonderful supportive people to turn to who are so knowledgeable!

Thanks



Tiffany and Stella
