Hi Tanya.

Reece got back his constipation/throwing up problem again. The reason he was throwing up this time though was because he would strain so hard. He didn't go to the bathroom for 2 days but every time we went out he ran to the grass like he had to go so bad Broke my heart. I did give him the medicine from the last time and that helped. So this was like the 4th time in 2 and a half months he was having these problems. I'm still trying to pinpoint what causes it.

Also his anal glands are irritating him so much. He is going to get them removed but I don't have the appointment yet. His tonsils are always swollen because he licks his butt SOOOO much. He also has chronic yeast infections which could also be causing the swollen tonsils. I clean his ears twice a day religiously but he still gets the infections.

When he gets his constipation, he worries me so much. I make a big ordeal out of anything wrong with any of my animals. I know every detail of their bodies and the second anything changes, we are at the vet. I take better care of them than of myself, hehe. After Reece gets his surgery and I can pinpoint the constipation problem, hopefully then I can try to figure why he's so prone to yeast infections. Then he'll be all better I have to wonder if his previous owners ever took care of this stuff.

Look how shaggy he's getting, we're due for grooming soon:


Thanks for asking about him Tanya!
