Louie paid a visit to Rose City Veterinary Hospital in Pasadena on August 29 for an afternoon appointment with Dr. Bonney. He has another appointment on Tuesday, September 2 for non-anesthetic teeth cleaning. In anticipation of that visit, he was put on antibiotics to counteract any problems that the scaling of plaque might trigger. Louie suffered from a mild ear infection, most likely due to yeast in the canal. His ear was flushed and Mometamax drops were prescribed; these will be administered once daily, with six to eight drops per administration. Louie also needed to have his posterior shaved! He doesn't keep himself clean there any more, so shaving was required. He had developed a slight infection, so Amoxicillin was prescribed. This antibiotic is for his raw butt and also to clear up any problems with plaque when he is treated on Monday. Louie's degenerative myelopathy is improved. Dr. Bonney commented that he was holding his hind legs up in a way that she had never seen before; he didn't slouch. His heart rate also sound much better than before. A decision was made to take Louie off Ascriptin. TLC Pet Hospital suggested that Louie take one tablet of Ascriptiin each day to help fight blood clots. Louie apparently suffered clotting on the lungs on December 26 as evidenced by, among other things, cyanosis when admitted to the emergency room. Ascriptin, a buffered Aspirin, can be harsh on dogs particularly Wolfhounds. Given that Louie appears to be stable, it was decided that he no longer needs this drug. A sample of blood was drawn to measure Louie's creatinine level. It was stable. So his once daily flush of 500 mil of Ringer's Lactate Solution will continue. Louie is a pharmacist's dream dog in that he now receives 19 tablets each day. His weight on Friday was stable at 161.4 pounds (73.4 kg) and his temperature was 101.5 °F. For a Wolfhound of eight years and three months, he continues to be in good health.
