Holly's Annual Checkup

Holly's just had her annual checkup. She appears to be in good shape, and has lost a bit of weight (down to 26kg). Her perfect weight is about 27kg so we'll increasing her food slightly to arrest the weight loss. I can't see her objecting to slightly more food!

The only minor issue is a skin tag on her lower left leg that has grown over the last 12 months. It's now big enough to catch on things, but only attached by a thin bit of skin. She could easily catch in when she's running around in the woods so we decided to have it removed. We'll take her into the vet in a couple of weeks to have it frozen off.

I had to laugh when we arrived. Holly flatly refused to go into the building without me. I had to put on a mask, take her into reception, hand her over and get out the door before she noticed. Daft dog!

Glad that Holly is in good shape 😀. I had a skin tag months ago and it eventually fell off after it kept getting caught, luckily it didn’t hurt that much!
 
Monty has had three small tags appear on his upper lips over the past year. the vet checked them and said all was ok, and they don't appear to be getting bigger. They sometimes look like a big crumb hanging from his mouth.
