It's Christmas time so I sing "Rudolph the red nose reindeer" to Rudolph My $1500 goat. He is walking better since I've clean out his pen. He's doing very well and so are all the other goats. My pig is better and Serena, the only chicken has taken up a home with the pig Bubba. They seem to have formed a bond.
The dogs and I aren't wondering whats going on with us. We all have mange.I've had hives for the last 2 months. I thought the dogs caught an allergy from me. Like when your pregnant and your husband is throwing up. I should have known better. As close as I am to my dogs I know that they feel that same kinship with a dish or a bowl full of Roast beef with gravy.
Went to the vet yesterday morning and got the dogs checked. He did a scarping but knew right away that we have mange. Especially when I told him I was itching too. He said "Humans are a dead end host and the mange mite will most likely die with-in a few weeks unless I have a alternate source of infestation. (The dogs)" He treated Maggie and Lex and sent home medicine (Revolution) for Bernard. Our dogs have never used Revolution so it might work. though all the animals are on advantage. No fleas but a mange mite which is actually a dog scabies. YUCK!
Paid the vet including the outstanding amount for the pig. Almost $900 Crap!
