but they would like him to come in so they could weigh him and give him the proper dosage :thumbsup

Thanks trysh
that means alot, considering I had no clue when I got him. we have both come a long way.
He is evenstanding on his hind legs sometimes :wahoo

That looks like he is really using them quite well. I bet he gets stronger and stroner with them. I have found the same is true with Buffy. she is using her backleft leg much better. Still don't think she will ever be able to go out. Probably the same with Simon. Has Simon picked a favorite betw you and Tony?

[Sweet Simon's Mommy]

not yet, and I'm glad too we both love him so much.
he is about 7months now isn't Buffy around that age too??
Do you know how much she weighs?
we all seem to feel he is small for his age

I don't know if the vet told you, but ear mites usually requires re treatment in about three weeks. That is when any eggs that might have been left will hatch. He's looking good though!!

[redwuff]

I found Buffy in April and she most likelly was weaned at the time. So I am guessing she was 12 weeks which makes her a Jan baby. I think she is around a year. She is definitely small also. Never weighed her but I think she is under/close to a pound.
