So Winston's been having some issues with itching and licking which I suspected was the result of a food allergy . . . nope. His anal sac's were full . . . went to the vet today, emptied em' out, and away we went. I was hesitant to suspect his anal sacs as a problem becaue its very uncommon in young puppies, but apparently it can and does happen. I just hope that this does not become a recurrent problem!
We'll see if things improve . . . . the vet said that he may stop licking today, or it may take a couple days. But if he still seems bothered by them in a week, he wants him to come back in and he'll flush them out with an antibiotic. The problem with this is though that it requires him to be sedated . . . not something that I am really to enthused about. So hopefully things will improve. So far he hasn't licked yet, but its only been a couple hours . . . .
