That's grape salad, Mr. Wagglebee. It's a tradition in the trisham family

Okay, we all have our idiosyncrasies.

I’m LOST, so I’m staying OUT of this one!

[DJ MacWoW]

Wagglebee dissed her grape salad pic. lol

I’ve been awake and up since 5:00AM! I’m certain you both can guess why. Right. Louie.

Not only did he consume a sufficient amount of two $20’s and one $10 so that I’m out $50 last night, but apparently, he’s allergic to the new antibiotics too, because when he awakened me at 5:00AM (repeating that ungodly hour for emphasis) I couldn’t help but to notice he’s full of lumps and red splotches again and scratching himself, barking and trying to bite the lumps he can reach!

I could see some lumps starting to appear last night, so I gave him a dropper full of Benadryl but obviously that wasn’t sufficient, and it’s a capital C H O R E and F I G H T to get that down his throat. I tried to hide the liquid in some chopped turkey and gravy, but he’s too wise for that. It remains untouched. He only fell for that once.

I’m damn tired, but I have to get dressed and take him back to the Vet’s ASAP, so I might as well get started.

[wagglebee]

Good luck!

[DJ MacWoW]

Socks woke me up early digging the blankets off of me and biting my fingers but I refused to get up until 6:30. lol

Good luck with Louie. Maybe he's allergic to ink? ;-)

[onyx]

Oh wow!

I find that shocking!

The wagglebee I know, is a perfect gentleman!

[DJ MacWoW]

He WAS a gentleman about it. He just asked why she was posting granola for Thanksgiving. ;-)

[wagglebee]

No, it's just something more appropriate for a luncheon for old ladies than it is for Thanksgiving. But that's just my ever so humble opinion. :-)

[onyx]

I am absolutely stunned by all of this.

Thankfully, I didn’t give him ANY of the new antibiotics that were sent home with him!

Louie must be one of those “sensitive” dogs.

Geeeez.

[DJ MacWoW]

LOL!!!

I think it's a "Waldorf Salad" kind of thing. Minus the apples.

[DJ MacWoW]

Purebreds are usually sensitive. I had a mutt that was allergic to fleas. She bit off the end of her tail. We woke up in the morning to a puddle of blood. They didn’t have Frontline back then.

[wagglebee]

I've seen this before in dogs. Is the prednisone (or whatever the steroid he got) helping any?

Try mixing the benadryl with ice cream, that might work.

[DJ MacWoW]

I kneel on the floor, get the dog/cat between my knees and calves, grab their face and pull their head back, pinch their jaws open and down it goes!

Waldorf Salad is the ORIGINAL old lady luncheon food!

[onyx]

I would NOT have gotten up either, save for how horrid he looked and I wanted to TRY to trick him with the turkey and gravy, so as to save me a trip to the Vet, provided the dosed turkey/gravy would have worked.

But NO. He won’t touch it and I’m not going to fight with him like I did last night.

Not worth it.

He can get another serious injection and another exam to make certain he’s having another allergic reaction.

He actually looks worse today than yesterday.

Well, now he’s looking a little better and a little spry and yet pathetic, but he’s going to the Vet. I’m not putting up with him and his antics all day.
