Vet Day

Ash eyes have been looking really red ):

And we have not brought him for a vet visit since Cal adopted him. So, I scheduled an appointment on Friday (no work on good friday! yay!) at Companion Animal Surgery.

On the way there...

Ash refuse to leave Calvin's face.

 Gave me a kiss when I asked for it tho.

 Ash sitting straight on the back seat! Taller than me!

Vet said that Ash has skin sensitivity, and his left hing leg is less muscular, which after physical check-up, he inferred that, that particular limb has some problem. The ligaments which holds the joints together is torn, that's why its a lot less muscular than the other hind leg (from what I understood).

The only way to cure this once and for all is surgery because it's not a new injury and has been that way for quite awhile for the other hind leg to be so much more muscular. But of course there's risk to every surgery due to anesthesia, therefore Cal and I decided not to go for it unless absolute necessary.

We also did a heartworm check for him, negative. So we had him under 2 vaccines. Heartworm and another one. 

The heartworm prevention has 2 types, the pills which has to be administered monthly, or the jab, which is yearly by the vet. We opted for the jab, and the needle was bigger! Was worried Ash might struggle, but surprisingly he's good with jabs. 

Vet explained why Ash eyes were red. It was due to dandruff, from the top of his head which dropped into his eyes and caused irritation; also because of his skin sensitivity (which is common for many dogs in Singapore weather). So Ash has vitamins to eat, which taste like meat and has Omega 3 / 6 which is good for him! (: 

Bill came up to 300+ plus drugs and vitamins for Ash. Haha! Cal shared half with me.

Meanwhile, Ash has to be at home ): No walks for 2 weeks due to vaccine / weakened immune system.

And I shall end of with a short video of Ash in the car enjoying the wind. (:
