Yesterday the vet said there was significantly less pus and wax in Frodo’s
ears. She said to stop Baytril and Pen-G shots and instead give TMZ
tribrissen 0.65ml orally 2/day. He’s still dizzy and has trouble walking
when I put him on his feet (has weak back left leg and goes in circles,
some are big circles and sometimes he stands for a bit). He sleeps a lot
and always lays in a croissant shape. 🥐.

Brenda, I hope the laser works. I’ve heard good things, please keep us
posted too. So sorry about Frodo. It’s so hard when our babies get older.
Love and prayers,
Janet

Please put Frodo on the prayer list (or update his issue). For the past
2 weeks he has head some tilt and lots of dizziness and considerable
trouble walking from a double ear infection. The antibiotics (first
Baytril oral, only 1 injection of Pen G, Baytril topical ear drops,
Panacur, then a week later (last week) we added daily injections of Pen-G)
are not killing the infection. I have trouble putting in the ear drops,
but they seem to be getting down in there, although I’m never sure if it’s
getting down into the ear canal /ear drum or in the other cavern that
doesn’t go anywhere. Vet says it’s a “sterile infection” and antibiotic
isn’t crossing the blood brain barrier. The vet is asking a compounding
pharmacist if there is anything topical we can put in his ears. She also
may try steroid ear drops as a last resort before we PTS. I’m aware that he
is 9 ½ years old, so we are trying to figure out if he can be cured, at
least enough to have a good quality of life. We started Reglan injections
yesterday to get gut moving. He started eating again last night and today
without being force-fed, so maybe we can keep him stable enough to give the
antibiotics more time. He sleeps a lot and still grooms himself and
sometimes his bonded mate too. He loves his greens and will eat a whole
garden if I let him, but vet said only 2 cups a day, less if he gets
diarrhea. I hope the vet can find a topical drug that will help. The vet
is going to loan us a UV laser to use on his ears twice a day. Please
also pray for me as I’m having some health issues and am stressed out.
love,
Brenda and Frodo and Balin
