Gosh - this sometimes feels like a never ending story.
Bailey was convinced that there was something interesting under the fridge. He started to scratch the fridge to get access to what ever it was supposed to be. AND his poorly paw started to bleed. Took him to vet. He does not want to operate. He thinks that it is a strange calcium deposit
and it is gradually bursting through his paw. Apparently it is very unusual to have such a deposit in the paw. They are usually under the skin.I
He also said that Bailey's nervous system does not seem to be in balance! Right.
The vet actually is also a homeopathic practitioner and has suggested that maybe we should try some homeopathic treatments.
Well, I'm sorry but I think that it is a bit... How shall I put it? Naff.
I was really interested in reading that other cockers have steroids and antibiotics and that both medicines seem to be effective.
In defence of the vet - he is very caring and genuinely interested in Bailey's problems. He tells me that Bailey's symptoms as a whole are really rare and weird as there are no previous similar cases in UK, possily in the world!
He has not charged me for last two visits and he wants to see Bailey again next Thursday.
I have my own chair in the waiting room!
So, what now? Homeopathy - is it worth trying?
