Many thanks to all of you. I was really upset Saturday, getting used to this news more, now, re Lacey.

Tasha: rather than learn that this medicine is helping her feel better, she is learning that if she struggles, she can get away and I won't be touching her "there" and putting the ointment on! Duh! At the vet, it took 3 of us: vet, tech and me. Dad is helping, but she is a handful, lol. It is getting more of a battle each time. Good news is, the bright red color is calmed down a LOT and it is just a bit flush looking now, almost it's normal pink coloring. Silly pupper, she isn't growling at us or snapping, which is great! She does grind her teeth a bit, which she does when she gets stressed. This is when we are holding her and I am trying to apply the ointment. Ah well, as long as it heals up.

Thanks for the candle, Elyse! And for all the good wishes from everyone. It does help.
