I'm not really sure Rory fully appreciates her spa treatment. After battling her allergies on and off for two years, we took her to the vet. Before we could say a word he had a steriod shot in her and said come back in 6 weeks for another. Well I do not like steriods and I definitely can't afford them every 6 weeks. So into the bath with tea tree shampoo, finely ground oatmeal and all natural peppermint shampoo for a little tingle and good smell. We washed and massaged and even had a little blow dry.
We will try some topical ointments and attempt to keep these allergy issues under control without "steriods." I'm thinking it's an environmental allergy, with my luck I probably have a dog that's allergic to grass. So for now Rory will be getting a spa treatment about every 6 months and in between wet wipe downs. Poor Rory monster.
