Hair of the Dog,

Remember me?

Well, I hate to admit this, but you got me into a mess.

Guess what I have snoring under my feet here in my office as I type this?

A big old yellow lab.

I took him to the vet last week, and they weighed him. He weighs 89 pounds.

Had a really bad yeast infection in his ears. I'd been treating him for ear mites and couldn't get it cleared up. Guess why that's I'm not qualified to be a vet.

Anyway, thaks for getting me into this mess. He loves me so much, and the feeling's mutual.

I'm glad you're in that mess! It's a good mess! Has he stopped the marking thing?


Yeast infections go hand and hand with labs. I've had labs all my life, and have learned to buy the blue ear cleaner in the BIG economy bottle and clean them out after they swim or if it's damp or humid out... Particularly if they swim in fresh water, I've found.

Or, if you have access to salt water, swim him there... no fungus problems.
