who knew?

Dave's stomach issues are still lingering. The only change is that they're now at the other end. We introduced regular food on Wednesday, after the vomiting was done, and the diarrhea started. He didn't seem to be himself on Thursday, so I called the vet, who advised us to go back to chicken and rice and prescribed a anti-diarrheal medication for him. Since starting the medication, he's perked up and been more Dave-like.

This made me laugh. Who knew that you could call dog meds into a regular pharmacy?

The other issue we have now is something that looks like a sore on his belly. We first noticed it last night, and had given him a bath the previous day, so he had to have just done it. It doesn't seem to bother him at all. I'm a little concerned that it could be a weird skin reaction because it doesn't look quite like a scab or open cut. Being a worst-case-scenario person, I thought for a minute that it could be some sort of skin cancer, but I'm hoping not, obviously. There's always something, I guess. The positive side is, as I said above, he was much more himself yesterday and this morning (so far).
