Paw and Snout Disease

Well, Noah had to go to the doctor for his sickness. He had fever on Tuesday and even into Wednesday morning, but by Thursday he had quit eating. Mommy called the doctor and took him to Babiesmart (I guess that is what it is called - my doctor is at Petsmart so I assume his is at Babiesmart.) Anyway, the doctor diagnosed him with Paw and Snout Disease. It means that he has sores on his hands, feet and mouth. The sores in his mouth made him not eat.

By Friday morning, Mommy and Daddy both had it also. It was not a fun weekend in our house. Papaw wanted me to go stay at his house with him to be sure that I didn't get Paw and Snout Disease, but it was a good thing that I did not go because he ended up with it also. My whole family was taken over by this. It was not nice. Mommy, Daddy and Papaw all ran high fevers, and by high, I mean, 103.4. Momma Gena and GrandDanny brought food over for my family and would help take care of me and Noah, but they did not want to stay too long. They feared that they would get it also.

Fortunately everyone is now better and life is back to normal!!

And that's just the dog's life!
