The reason they are discouraging surgery is because they said the recovery process is not fun. For a few weeks after, he might not be able to control his pottying. I had heard from people who's dogs went through the surgery that the recovery is pretty quick. I'm going to have to really research it.

I went in to get a refill on Reece's ear medication. I told them that it was a yeast infection, but my vet told me he had to test it again. I told him I was SURE it was yeast because he gets these infections chronically. They wouldn't listen to me and retested him. They also trimmed his ear hair and charged me for each of these things. So I spent $150 on anal gland expressing and ear stuff. I also just spent $450 on school books, and it is time for Shiloh's yearly shots
