Hello to all. Don't take this the wrong way, but not happy to be here.
That said, I know I will get information that will help me and Scooter get through all this.
My question has to do with where to get the blood sample. Tried his inside ear flap. Hurts him terribly and not enough blood to test. Tried a foot pad, same deal. He ran away to hide.
He does have this inflamed spot on the back of his neck where the harness chafes. Been there for years, no big deal, just never completely heals. No hair grows there. About an inch diameter area.
Anyway, I can easily get all the blood I need if I prick in this area but the vet tech said this will not do. Can't reach his vet until next week and I need to resolve this now.
Any reason I cannot use this blood. Blood is blood, yes?
Please advise.
Thank So!
