    Tollers are known for their self-red colouration, meaning that their pigment matches the red coat and they do generally have light eyes (sort of an amber colour as an adult). However, this is not true of all sporting breeds/retrievers. He's definitely not pure Toller, but I think there is a chance that he has some in him. That being said, if you're in guam, he might not have any in him at all as there are probably not many there seeing as they aren't a common breed. Lots of mutts and other purebreds can have the same sort of appearance as pups.

    Good luck with his worm treatments and such! Hopefully he'll be better soon.

    Thanks.

    He seems to be doing well. The hair is coming back on his ears and leg already. He's so pretty when he's washed, but the treatment can't be washed off, so he gets so dirty between. I sometimes have to give him a bath and just do it again. I hope this is OK. I asked the vet for something for his eyes as I'm doing the treatments so he wont get hurt.
    His belly is not swollen any more, so I think the worms are gone.
    No one had got ringworm from him, so he is either not contagious any more, or misdiagnosed.

    His "Impetigo" seems to be almost 100% gone with just being more clean. They told me not to touch it and not to put anything on it. I did get an OK to give him Children's benadryl to help with the scratching and dry skin from the Impetigo and the treatments.

    He's doing great and I'm trying to find out WHERE on Guam they have dog training classes! LOL! I'm not sure if the Military has someone for that or if we would have to go out into town! I think we will be out in town or just end up with a book and trying ourselves.

    Thanks again,
    Rayna
