Thanks for asking Auntie Sandra! The little scabbed area in the middle looks MUCH better today, but the scratch on the outer edge still looks rather angry . I went out and got a fresh tube of triple antibiotic ointment because the one we had on hand is pretty old and I worried about expiration. I'll keep up with it till they are gone. Her skin seems rather thin and prone to scratches and cuts (perhaps from her greyhound genes?). I know it is really a small thing, but you know how us Moms are .
