Wordless Wednesday: Mite Mania!!

Well...there is no better way to say this then...Rookie's demodex is back. He got scraped last week and they are EVERYWHERE :(. I am speechless...

He is such a great trooper at the vet.
Empty water bottles make great rewards at the vet's office :)
He is back on Ivermectin and we are exploring other treatments as well. This is his fourth year dealing with these damn parasites :(.

    Bummer Rookie! I'm glad you figured out what was going on and that you are being treated for it.

      Thankfully we caught it before it got too bad but he is still REALLY itchy. Poor dude :(

      Thanks! Hopefully one of these new products on the market will work for him. I would hate to see him have to go through this every year :(.
