Will Herbal Supplements Relieve a Dog's Allergy?

For the last two weeks, we have been treating Oz for secondary bacterial and fungal infections related to his allergies. We are happy to report that he is feeling and acting like his old self again.

The vet prescribed both antibiotic and antifungal medication to get Oz well again. Thankfully, he did not need to be on any steroid medication to reduce swelling or itching. The round of antibiotic will be completed soon but he needs to stay on the antifungal a bit longer, as fungal infections can be sneaky and pop back up again.

Freedom is Never Free #MemorialDay

While many celebrate today as the official start of Summer, Memorial Day really is a day to remember those who have died while in service to our country. It is a day of honor so today we thank those men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice while defending out freedom.

"And they who for their country die shall fill an honored grave, for glory lights the soldier's tomb, and beauty weeps the brave." -- Joseph Rodman Drake
