Yukon I present to you my current situation. Next lesson from Stella: Don’t be like me, your Uncle Yukon, and lick your arm & leg pits on & on if they are itchy. I’m totally fine, but ugh, the indognity! 😭😭😭

    Hope you're feeling better. 🥰 Chewy had the itchies too. The vet said it was a yeast infection and dad made it worse by giving her an oatmeal bath!

    @boboboy_bordercollie It’s from the rain. My arm & leg pits must have gotten damp & then chafed during our rain hike. Mom didn’t know about Squirrel Nut Butter that runners use, but Maddie told me & now we have some. Meanwhile I licked & licked until things got infected. So I’m on antibiotics & a low steroid & topical wash until it heals. This too shall pass! 🥰🥰🥰

    @couchwolf I really hope you don’t get the donut. 🍩 It’s not too bad, honestly. But last night I got a paw stuck trying to take it off. There I was alone in the dark like that until mom woke up & found me. 😭😭😭Praying your meds and the like keep you from this 🍩

    Sorry Yukon. Maybe your mom can get you a superhero donut like Santa's. I hope your ouchies stop making you lick. Does this happen every year at this time. My grandma Indy was allergic to pine tree pollen. It would get on her paws and make her face swell. Mom had to wash her paws and give her benadryl until the pollen stopped.

    Stella, I think you may be right! 😎

    Sorry sweet friend! I guess though sometimes it can be a good thing that us dogs lick when we are itchy because then our humans find out that we need to go to the vet. 🥰. Trying to see the pawsitive side. ❤️
