Noahs Ark Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Poor boy I hope he is feeling better, I had a white boxer who had something very similar when he was 10 months old, he had swellings, red patches and was generally unwell. Our vet said it was some kind of allergic reaction, but he hadn't been anywhere that day and had no visable sting marks. The only thing he had different to eat from his normal food was a sausage. We made sure he never ate another sausage and he never suffered from it again. I don't really think the sausage was to blame neither did the vet but you never know. Give him big hugs from us Jenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGAR Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 HI guys, thank you ever so much for all your help and PM's etc. As Becks said, I have been offline until today so I couldn't reply. Bogey has recovered well but is still red around the eyes and nose. He is eating better and got some of his old spunk back. The bruises disappeared literally over night and his belly is back to its natural colour again. The swelling have all gone too, he still sleep alot but is altogether better. Vet is still puzzled and things delayed allergic reaction.... Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muriel Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Would be nice to know what he's allergic to, but glad he's a lot better, hope the eyes/face settle soon too. Still sending if he wants it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGAR Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 That's what I don't know, Muriel, I have been thinking about it til I was blue in the face. I have changed neither food nor cleaners/washing powder etc. He's not been vacc'd and I abhor chemical flea treatment. Unless the factory changed something in the food, I am at loss. He is also always with me outside as he is dog aggressive and needs watching all the time... Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celeste Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Poor boy that looks really horrible, can i just mention tho' that a dog can become allergic to previously ok substances, so even tho' you haven't changed anything in his enviroment he can get a reaction quite suddenly, hope he's made s full recovery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGAR Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 I wanted to thank you for all your well wishes and help with Reiki, positive thoughts and information. It took a while and although I still don't know what has caused this weird outbreak, Bogey is finally back to his usual bouncy self!! THANK YOU ALL!
