Click on colored links to go there.Today we took our Miniature Schnauzer "Eli" to the vet to get some of his annual shots. Eli is the spoiled member of the family.. He gets his way with most everything.. He even has his own wardrobe of sweaters.
We do travel some and cannot take Eli with us so we board him at a local kennel in Smethport called Rainy Day Kennels.
Since dogs can get what is called Kennel Cough, he had to have a annual Bordatella shot. Bordatella or kennel cough is a virus dogs get much like a virus or cold that humans get.
Also because we have a camp, we let Eli wonder around in the woods sometimes and he does pick up a tick every so often. Ticks can cause Lyme Disease in dogs so Eli also has a annual Lyme disease shot. This protects him year round and so far we just pluck off any tick we may find on him.
The above left and center pictures were taken at our camp on the front porch while Eli was in his "trimmed" hair style. The above right picture was taken several years ago in the woods when Eli was in his "shaggy" hair style.
Eli was born in November of 2001 in Coudersport, PA and we brought him home the day before Christmas. He has been spoiled ever since.
