and so is this...Sorry for the blurry photo, but you get the point. For the last week, Mom has noticed this krustiness at the corner of my mouth. At first she thought I was getting lazy and not washing my face after I ate (silly woman) so she washed my face...but it didn't go away. Than she noticed one day it was krusty and the next pimply.
Mom finally had enough and as usual made me go to the vet. I feel fine, but she's such a worry wart. So off to the vet I go and guess what??? They really don't know what it is!!! They think it might be an infection so I am now on antibiotics for 2 weeks...YES, 2 WEEKS!!!!! If it doesn't clear up by then they are going to do a bio-popsy which doesn't sound good at all...so cross your paws I don't have to do that!!! And here I wanted to be all pretty for my Nanny's visit...hopefully Nanny will still think I'm cute.
Oh and Mom, is this your idea of a joke?
Ha!-ha! (pointing finger ala Nelson) :-)

The humans are such freaks. Whenever us dogs get a teenty tiny little medical problem they're all freaked out and running us to the V.E.T. Ugh. We hope the meds work so you don't have to go back!!!

Thank you for voting for me! If elected Chin of the year I promise to never answer my cell phone during a speech or make a loud cackle laugh or wake up stinky and snorey. I will just be a perfect angel of a Chin as always.
Hey Ruby,

Your new friend,

Ruby, I think maybe you are more like Bleeding Gums Murphy. I hope you feel better soon. Make sure you get some extra treats!
Your friend, Lenny
I sure hope your krusties go away, Ruby! I've heard that biopopsies are no fun at all! Maybe some strawberry flavored Chapstick will work for you?!

Does it hurt Ruby? It looks like it might hurt. I had a pimple on my chin once, and my mama showed it to everyone. I was mortified.
Rubinator!

You are still cute, I hope the owie gets better real soon, tell your Mom to back off already with the Vet.

Hi Ruby,
Oh, I hope the pills clear up your krustys. Don't want you to have a bio-popsy. That don't sound like too much fun. I am in love with my vet, so if you want a second opinion and have time to visit Chicago, I highly recommend her. Hope everything clears up nicely and nanny will love you no matter what!
Your pal,
Kirby
I hope it gets bettre soon. It does not look FUNNY at all. Your Mom certainly has a warp sense of humour.
Ruby you are cuter than krusty!
A little bit funny? No, not funny at all. Snigger, snigger.

Antibiotics for 2 weeks? That is sooo not cool! How did you get that krusty in the 1st place? Your poor lip. I hope it will go off soon.
Love licks,
Solid Gold Dancer
That looks sore Ruby - I hope it goes away soon.
River

You are beautiful to me! I am sure your Nanny will love you too!

~ Girl girl
Don't worry, girl, you still look bootiful! :)
I can't wait to hear about your nanny's visit! I hope she brings you lots of snackies and pressies!
Oh, and the hope that memin (that's what Ava calls "medicine"!) isn't too yucky.
Puggy kisses

Oh Ruby I hope your sore will get better. This happened to one of my mammas dogs years ago, before she went "all green", and it turned out that it was a reaction to pesticide that had been spread on the lawn by a lawn fixing company.
Everything from what our mamma s wash the floor with to the soap they use in the dishwasher can cause big trouble for our mammas AND us. Most mammas does not know how seriously bad the toxic chemicals really are ( cause no one tells them, and OMdog, you would think that the big companies like proctor and Gamble/Johnson and Johnson, palmolive to mention just a few, would NOT use these dangerous toxins in their products, but they do cause it is cheap preservatives) that are found in 99% of all supermarket/k-mart/wallmart/drugstores..etc.
Unless mammas buy from companies that specifically use no toxic or bad chemcials...the products will have chemicals like formaldehyde/phosphate.dioxin/ammonia/bleach...etc
Even Tide detergent is full of phosphate and formyldehyde that causes all sort of diseases, including cancer, and think about this...where does all of it go, it goes from our dishwashers, waasher machines, showers and baths, down the drains, and into the soil, into the rivers, and to the oceans, and from there the chemicals hurt fish and wild life all through the world...( when scientists test the water in the rivers and oceans, they find lots of pesticide, and toxic chemicals in the water)
I get kind of RABID mad at companies that care more about $$ than everyones health!!
SOooooo. the best thing to do is to stop buying from them and switch to a company that does not use any of these chemicals....
like
www.saferforyourhome.com
www.melaleuca.com
( and more and more companies are entering the markets now that are much safer)
My mamma has been a customer for years and she loves them, cause they are cheap too ;O)...just tell her if you like to try, cause she can hook you up with whole sale prices..:O)))
Check this out too....
