No need to fear, sweetie... we're going to see Dr. Agas. You've met him before, remember?
Confi tagged along and she's adapting to traveling in a car pretty quickly.
"Hey, that's GREAT improvement! Apply for another 5 more days...and she'll be fine." "That's great news, isn't it, Bly? C'mon...cheer up!"
We used to say that Bubbly is hyper-active in the past and how we wished she would exhibit her pug standard traits out soon- laid back, lazy and quiet. Now, we regret we had wished for that too soon...
From crate to toilet to… wet kitchen. Yes, Bubbly’s roaming space is getting bigger. We’ve a sneaky feeling that the day will come (soon, we think) when she has the whole house to herself...hmmnn...
Why wet kitchen now? It’s because the toilet lack sunlight and we felt it may be of help to her eye if she has some (not too much) sunlight when we are away. Amateurs like us just have to try everything, don’t we? Or perhaps, it’s a psychological issue - some sunlight may cheer her up Or it’s purely a matter of conscience – …oh you poor little fella...anything to make you happy, sweetie...
Well, whatever it is…we’re pleased with the plan.
A good change should bring positive results, rite? So we thought till tis morning, out of the blue, she vomited twice. Exactly why? We don’t know… we're sure the sunlight did not caused that.
She is still as active, though not as hyper as before she caught corneal ulcer.
Of course, Confi is still puzzled... Hey, what exactly is happening here? Why are you on quarantine...did you get H1N1 or what?
We skimmed through some pug books and prepared for the worst. Eye disease is a common problem among pugs but we hate the idea that Bubbly is already infected with one at this tender age.
Can’t wait for the night to be over. We called the Urbans Paws tis morning and quickly made an appointment.
Pack our things and off we go.
“Going in a crate…hey, are we going to meet those frens again?” (the pug gathering)
Confi is coming along too as her second vaccination is due today.
Enjoying your ride? Absolutely.
Waiting for their names to be called at the veterinary clinic.
Dr. Dom L. Agas diagnosed that Bubbly has corneal ulcer, an inflammatory condition of the cornea involving loss of its outer layer.
“It’s common for dogs. Topical medications are generally effective in curing the problem. More than 90% chances of healing.” He went on to explain about surgery if no improvement within the next 2 days, but his first reply was what we wanted to hear. Whew! “Yeah…Bly…did you hear that or not…you’ll be alright, darling…”
But strict orders were given by Dr. Dom – no playing together for a while till things get better… ya see, we discovered that both Confi and Bubbly have also been infected with skin problems, apparently due to bacterial infection. They have to be on a 5-day antibiotic course. A tinge of regret…perhaps we should not have allowed them to play together in the first place – was that the cause? Dr. Dom said probably but bacterial infection can be caught anytime anywhere too.…more like a word of consolation to the owners…hmmnnn…
“Ok, no more playing together, both of you. Did you hear that?” They are to be separated at all times, at all costs…
“Why are they doing tis to us? Why? Why? Tell me why?”
