We got back off holiday yesterday and Melly had been in kennels for the whole of last week. OH collected her yesterday and she got a glowing report from the kennel staff, they were sorry to see her go
Anyway she's been quite subdued and she's not really herself. She's got about 10 matts on her underbelly and legs - she had been to the groomer before we went away so her coat wasn't too long but the kennel staff say the weather was terrible at the beginning of last week and they were so busy they didn't have time to groom all the dogs every day.
I noticed last night that Melody's last two teats were quite swollen and they're hard too. They aren't hot to the touch or discoloured and she's letting me feel them without any fuss but she's licking them and between her legs a lot. She doesn't have a discharge but she's very smelly so I'm thinking anal glands.
She's spent most of the day today in her bed which isn't like her
She's just as affectionate but there's something up with her. I've got an appointment with the vet for tomorrow morning but I can't help wondering whats wrong with her.
She had her 1st season in August and everything has been fine with her since, could she be coming into season again?
The only positive change about her is she scoffs her dinner now whereas before she would just sniff it and 'graze' at it
Any advice - once you have read this ramble - is greatly appreciated
