    Prayers for dear George that he is able to get the medical and dental care he needs. Thank you, Candace, for doing your best for him.

    I'll send you a pill popper, if you'd like.

    Is the Canadian P.O. still on strike?
    Blessings,

    Thanks, Pat - but his people are home tomorrow morning. I can get one from the kennel I worked at or the HS.

    I am going over there shortly. His eye isn't crusting any more so I hope that means the antibiotics are encouraging the stuff to drain.

    He is a sweet boy! I'll pass on some PT hugs if I may.

    His eye looked much better this morning. It's still closed more than the healthy one, but you can actually SEE the other pretty green eye.

    George is not too impressed with me as I am the one that pills him, bathes his eye, tries to put the gel on his spot on his head. Remember that George got all these meds Friday morning, so his person only had to deal with it once. I get to be the bad guy! lol

    The diabetes shot is nothing to do compared to all that!

    I pray I hear from the U of C vet school and from GE Money in Canada to see if they still have the Credit Care.

    Hopefully when the owner sees George looking better, he'll be inclined to give George a chance. When his eye was swollen almost shut and the side of his face had a pus pocket, he sure looked done!

    Mary, the strike was over about a week ago. I'll see if I can get a pill popper for his person.

    I feel bad opening his mouth because a) George isn't used to it, and b) I am sure it is painful for him.

    Thanks everyone...will pass on hugs and lovies!

    This is so sad because it all was preventable - and poor George pays the price. Prayers for George, that he'll have more years, happier years, here on Earth. And bless you for being so caring!

    George, sending many scritchies and cuddles your way.

    Good job Candace! Had to laugh as you in the role of "bad guy" - the main one looking out for this boy!

    I sure hope that someone will be able to help George to get a dental at a reasonable cost. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.
