Silas Problems

About a month ago we started to notice Silas' rear end had a bad smell coming from it so into the bath he went. The bath didn't help the smell came right back. So we (and by we I mean me) inspected him closer, it looked like he had diaper rash really bad. No amount of cleaning him up and applying triple antibiotic ointment helped so after a couple weeks we went to the vet (I feel like it is a second home). His poor butt was extremely infected and because we have amazing vets they wanted to wait on oral antibiotics since they know how sensitive his tummy is. They also recommended we start him on prescriptions probiotics just in case he would have to take them. After only a few days on them he has completely transformed. He now has a real appetite and real interest in food. He has never really begged for food and up until now we could sit right next to him and eat and he wouldn't pay much attention to it but now he acts as though he hasn't had anything to eat his whole life. He has more energy and play drive. He acts like a normal puppy. We went back to the vet today for his third checkup and he still has to go back in for more treatments but he is looking better. While there I told the vet how much he has changed since starting the probiotics and she was very happy for him so she wrote him unlimited refills for a year! You know how I know we have great vets? The whole staff celebrates with him every time something good happens to him. Today he got lots of extra pets and treats and even the doctors we have never had an appointment with know him and all his issues and they even get excited for him. Maybe next year we will only have to go to the vet for regular yearly check ups.

In other news nothing exciting has happened. I'm still at the same place I was with wedding planning so no news to report there. Kevin bought more work clothes so now I can do laundry a little less. He has also been working days so that has been really nice since now we get to see each other more.

Who is in the wedding party? Well that's the one thing we can't decide on. We are basically struggling with how many people to have in the wedding party. Once we have that number it won't be as hard to decide who to ask. I am hoping to have our engagement pictures taken soon and the save the dates sent out in the beginning of January.
