Sunday Renovations and Ear Revelations

Sorry I have been away from the blog-o-sphere world of late...just not making time for it, my bad! So we been going through a deck renovation and it's almost complete! We are about 90 % done. Well maybe 85%! Plus they have to install two gates one on either side of the yard. We had these make shift gates that were eyesores but effective in keeping Nala in the yard! Nala just loves the carpenters who come everyday. She has to give them her usual wag-a-wag greeting and get petted by them. I wonder what she will think when they are done and not part of her morning ritual?! 

In between all that Nala had an ear infection. She has been pretty good since she hasn't had one since April.I noticed she was mopey the other day and not her usual peppy puppy self. When I went to pet her head by her ear she moved quickly away and on further examination her ear definitely seemed red and smelled funky! To the vet we went and sure enough a yeast infection in both ears. The vet cleaned them out and put in some Mometamax and give her a shot of hydro-cortisone Dexamethasone to help treat inflammation and an anti-fungal drug to take orally. She is doing much better now and after the ear med treatment I have to be very dilligent about cleaning her ears. Bulldogs are just more prone to ear infections. Below is a YouTube video to cleaning your bullies ears. It was just how the vet showed us and hopefully we can keep her ears in good shape going forward!


In the meanwhile we are thinking about Halloween and what we should be for the trick or treaters this year! Since she hates anything on her head I need to think of something simple. Any thoughts?

Have a good week!

Peace to all!











Keep those ears clean people!




Nala supervising!
