Kumo at the Vet

Kumo has a lot of recurring wounds all over his body... and lately it is getting really bad.  We've taken him to 2 vets already yet there is no improvement to his condition.  The skin test results are always normal.  No parasites too.  Could it be a psychological problem that is causing him to over groom?  I really don't know but in the meantime we need to make sure that aside from the wounds that there is nothing wrong with him physically.

This afternoon we took him to our 3rd vet for this year.  We've been there a lot quite often lately that there is no need for them to look at the id checker.  Hopefully third time's the charm and we will finally figure out what is causing the wounds.  The doctor prescribed the same medicated shampoo but we were given a new medicine to try.  We'll be back in 2 weeks as soon as we are done with the antibiotics but we are keeping our paws crossed that things will get better for our baby Kumo.

  5. Oh, no, baby Kumo! Have you or your vets considered food allergy? Does he groom the wounds and do they develop into hotspots? Qish had wounds all over his ears when he was 2 and the vets couldn't figure it out as well. They had to do several tests to rule each disease out, until they decided it's some kind of food allergy. Although I am not a big fan of meds with steroids, it did help Qish then. In case it still doesn't work out with your 3rd vet, I highly recommend Dr. Nielsen or Dr. Riza of Vets in Practice (just across Mandaluyong City Hall).

    Please get better, Kumo! :(

    1. Hi Jonna! We went to VIP last Thurs. Our vet was Dr. Kat. Hopefully we will find out what the cause is. I'll ask for Dr. Nielsen or Dr. Riza on our next visit.
