Case 1
3 year old male Cocker spaniel showed pinkish inflammed paws and underside of the body. Owner mentioned that the dog visited another vet and was given some medications. The problem was resolved for a few months but it recurred again. Firstly, the vet looked at its ears and suspect that the problem may arise from it. Therefore the vet proceeds to do a few procedures to check. When vet put a cotton bud into the left ear to check by turning clockwise and anti-clockwise, the dog displayed a scratching reflex (legs shaking). The same was done to the right ear and the dog felt pain.
Vet listed three possible causes of the inflammation:
1) Deep ear infection: Primary cure is to undergo a surgery to remove the vertical canal so as to allow aeration.
2) Allergy: Dog maybe allergic to current food so vet suggested a change of diet to low allergen food
3) Skin mites: Mites maybe the factor causing the dog to itch and scratch. Best way to improve its skin condition is to shave off all the fur. An anti-mite injection was also given
Dog was also prescribed with anti-fungal medication, meanwhile owner wanted to consider about the operation and get back to the vet later.
Case 2
Pug was presented with eye problem, fluorescein strip was used to test and found that there is roughness over the cornea of both eyes. There are presence of hair in the eye socket too. Prognosis is generalized keratitis, which is the inflammation of the cornea. Antibiotic eye drop is prescribed.
