So I nearly used up all I have to say.

Exciting life, huh????  Joe just got back from walking Spunky.  So Spunky has decided to take a nap.  I hope he figures out he does not need to scratch all of his imaginary  itches. Every year we go through this.  One year they put him on steroids and that stopped it.  Now, no more steroids.  It is to hard on his body.  So we have to keep a pretty close eye on him much to his disgust.  He will scratch one area till he bleeds.  I just keep rubbing lotion on him. Have to go through his hair which is thick to get to his skin.  I will do nearly any thing  to help him.  I not only feel for him but he starts in and wakes us up cause he sleeps beside our bed and when he gets going it sounds like someone is knocking on the door.

I like the picture of you and Joe. I wonder what makes a pup itch when there are no fleas? But they sure do it.

Spunky is such a joy to you and Joe. I'm sure you would do almost anything for him.

Poor Spunky. Hope his itching and scratching stops soon.

What a nice picture of you and Joe. Our dogs what we would without them.
We can leave and when we come back these dogs of ours will be out there jumping up and down waiting for us. They know the truck and the car as soon as we turn on our street. I hope Spunky is doing better with the itching tonight. Take care. Jean

Disco has the same thing - allergies - and he will itch himself bloody. We have had to use steroids once a year - but I hate it - but he is so bad with hives. I feel for you both.
