Blu is nearly two now..

last summer she got an irritation around her collar.. we thought initially she was into the poision ivy at my fathers house...

but during the week of my wedding (sept 6th) it just seemed to be getting worse and spreading down her neck (somewhat similar lookign to this) so I had her taken to the vet while we were on our honeymoon...

they for the second time last year told me ... they didn't find mites.. must be an allergy or a skin infection and prescribed antibiotics.. when I got back from my honeymoon she was better a little but not all the way.. by the time she was done with the antibiotics.. she was still not better just not as bad...

after I changed her food to California natural (last fall maybe Late October) it went away all together and hasn't returned since..

About a month ago... (no real change in her life other than seasonal flowers etc.. grass that might be blooming differently) the elbowys started to get irritated like little callouses and loose some hair.. She has seperationg anxiety and bangs around trying to break free from her crate when left in it, so we assumed that had caused it... until last week when the belly started. We bathed her in her special oatmeal shampoo...etc figureing maybe it was just an irritation.. well since her bath.. not only has it not not seemed to get any better, but now I can see lumps starting randomly under her coat on her back... and near her butt..

so whatever it is.. it's spreading...

thanks for looking !
