You can see some of the places that were COMPLETELY BALD on his left hip here, and his right nostril is still trying to get back to normal, but you guys just WOULD NOT believe how much better this baby looks (from even just two weeks ago)!
I started to make a thread with the whole story including pics, but it was becoming SOOO long even just when I was into what was going on in the first week of signs that there was a problem. Maybe I'll just do one where I post pics with dates...because you know, once I start typing, I am VERY thorough in getting my WHOLE (long, detailed, wordy) point across!!

Maybe I'll write a thread and you can edit!!...You, OF ALL PEOPLE, know "long story, short" is not part of my life!! Then again...it's not part of yours, either...bad choice of editor, on second thought!!
 
This forum is the first place I come when I fire up my computer Monday mornings. I LOVE catching up on all the pictures and going-ons :)

Dingo got left behind a couple of times this weekend for SEVEN HOURS STRAIGHT (even during the work week, she's never in her crate for more than 4-5 hours without a break). I know at this point, 1.5ys old, she COULD go all day but we also like the reprieve from work and spending an extra hour a day with a pooch must be good for your blood pressure, right? Saturday we went for a long walk and then had agility practice (which I still haven't been able to get a picture of) so she was pretty tuckered when we left. Friday night she got to sleep on the bed with us because we felt guilty. Sunday we did some exploring:

Found a baby Robin. He was far less impressed with Rubie than she was of him:

My editing skills can be eloquent or not so much depending on how much I get my whiskey on before I edit. :)

Edit.. Post more pics. What's he got going on there?

I will MAKE myself organize thoughts/pics today and post a thread in the health section...the short version...it started as an allergy concern, then a secondary infection...then it got VERY scary and they were thinking Pemphigus. Biopsies done, no auto-immune issue...Zinc-Responsive Dermatosis. It was so incredibly terrifying and frustrating. He was (to anyone who doesn't love him) scary to look at for a while. It was just a nightmare...that I am so glad to be waking up from!

I am so sorry..could you fill me in..I missed what was going on..Jake has developed skin issues especially in this past year ..he had almost no hair on his left eye and all underneath was patchy ..also his back legs ..but the drup apoquel has totally cured him..I also try to bathe him once a month in a medicated shampoo from my vet.. I will try to find a pic to show you..mainly his eye..I should have taken more photos of his skin but I don't think I ever did ..I will look and see what I have.

I see all I had to do was go down further in the thread! I am really sorry...Lately I have been haunted with bad karma concerning my Dobermans so I totally sympatise with ya...Jake was such an easy fix for his skin concerns so I was thrilled..Now he has what they think is a pinched nerve in his neck..perhaps not so easy..but we are doing what we can. sigh ...The vet seems to think he'll be fine but told me to realize that it might take up to 12 weeks! Good grief he has not been sleeping at night for the last week and a 1/2 and so neither do I. :( He is not eating very well either and has lost almost 2lbs in just the last week! He is in pretty good shape and had gained a bit more than he normally carries anyway but he for sure doesn't need to lose any more. Anyway praying for you and your boy to have a good result..I know how frustrating it can be. :pullhair::pullhair::pullhair:

To help him become more confident in the water I rolled up my trousers and took the plunge. He's getting there, slowly :)

Kaizer won't even step in water! Lmao. We stopped at an easy access point at the creek up north and the lab walked right in, wandering around, chomping water. Kaizer stayed on the bank and made sure to keep his feet far enough away while he got a drink. So much for being a big "scary" dog ;)
