A cheeper alternative!




We took Harley to the vet last night for a check up and to see if they had any suggestions for his foot. He doesn't like to keep the bandage on it. In fact, the past 3 days, we have had to put a new one on at least 7 times! He keeps pulling it off! I'm sure it has just gotten so itchy but even with the cone on his head, he still managed to pull the bandage off! He's just too smart for us! The vet suggested that we use a sock and just put tape at the top to hold it up! At this point-he is not as far along as they would like him to be (since he keeps pulling it off) but he is progressing nicely so we can put something on that is more breathable now. They also gave us some spray to squirt on his foot 3 times a day and some different (and cheaper) medicine that will help with the itchiness. Let's hope this works! So far he hasn't tried to take it off, but then again, he's only been wearing it for 2.5 hours and I've had him locked down in my office with me! He's a trooper though! With the spray-it should heal a little quicker and hopefully he will only have to wear his sock for another week!
Jase decided to try out some new footwear as well today! Silly boy! He can actually walk with these rings around his feet! Super cool dude!
