Great. Thank you for getting back to me. 😀

Sounds normal to me.

If the vet was digging around in there, it can cause the ear to swell inside. This isn’t unusual and would explain the worsened head tilt following the exam. I would give the antibiotic a chance to work before worrying that it could be something else.

Yes, the bald spots are caused by something. That’s why I initially thought perhaps syphilis or something similar.

I wonder if it could be from scent glands? Are the spots stinky?

@borya01 The link that @Bam posted was what I was going to recommend for searching. No brand is really perfect, so the idea is to pick one that is mostly correct, and then fill in any deficiencies with other parts of the diet.

Thanks!

I brought him outside with his little…[Read more]

I seem to have easy clipping sessions, followed by ones that turn into utter disaster. I do find that just aborting after a paw or even a nail and trying later when everyone especially the bun is less stressed is really helpful. Hey sometimes it takes a week or so to get all the nails. Sometimes feeding treats through out helps, sometimes that…[Read more]

@Bam thanks for posting that… oxbox didn’t do as well as I thought they would, however I always thought too much calcium was bad, so not sure I should be worried they have too little?  I mean if you also give greens and hay it should all be good right?
