So, we think that Leia has stopped scratching but we think that’s because she restarted steroids now. She’s started her second dose of the therapy to help with her allergies. my Mom told me that Leia could be on those therapy shots for allergies for a year before it starts to work.
It was at Leia’s last appointment where the doctor said that we should start and to mitigate some of the scratching while we see if the therapy shots will work. When we finally got her tested for allergies, she is allergic to all kinds of weeds and grass from outside and dust from inside as well.
My Mom let her outside to do her business a few days ago and she called her in after a while and she could not see her in the yard so she started shaking the pill pockets bag so she would come running.
I could tell that she had gotten into some thing because my Mom exclaimed, “Oh! You bad girl!” I told my Mom not to show me pictures until we got what we needed to get done finished and then I forgot about it so she texted me these pictures a couple days ago:
When my Mom showed me these pictures, she told me that Leia has found a new lounge spot in the backyard. It’s underneath the bushes! I was thinking about all we have gone through with her and all the scratching, and how long she has been on steroids and the fact that she is on shots for her allergies, which are outside allergies and she comes in all full of stuff!
We love her so much, and i’d just shook my head! She had just gotten a bath a couple days before, so my Mom just wiped her off.
