Max Day 22

Max Day 22

Max hung out in his little doggy cage all day while we took a short trip away from the house. We were gone for roughly 10 hours, which is the longest amount of time that we have been away from Max since he came home with us.

To our surprise he was able to hold it all in until we returned home. No little doggy mess in his cage as he awaited our arrival in order to take care of business. We were quite pleased!

If he keeps this up then he will be on track to be completely housebroken in a couple more weeks.

    Way to go, Max! Woohoo! Big Boy, my granddoggie. :) I bet he was excited to see you all!! :)

    Oh, how is the little guy feeling? Is he more perky? I expect him to be less calm, once he is all better.

    He seems to be feeling a little better, which is a good sign. We have signed up for an appointment with a different Vet clinic, because the one we went too is not a place we would like to revisit.

    Overall, things are working out.

    Oh, glad he is a bit better. Let me know how the other appointment goes. You did the right thing, if you are not comfortable with the one you went to.

    When is his next appointment? Hairy dogs seem to get ear infections more frequently than smooth coated ones. A vet I had years back told me to use a q-tip with a dab of alcohol on it, once a week, to clean off the dust, dirt, etc., on the outside of the ear, the skin just before the inner ear. Not wet it a lot, just a dab. Things get trapped easily due to the hair.
