Yes sometimes all the medications in the world are not enough to fight infection sadly.Well when I started feeling ulcerated skin in the healthy undamaged flesh I really knew that things were starting to get very serious.When the vets did a temp check her temp was almost 40 degrees my gut just told me that the flesh should not have been the color that it was and the smell even with regular bandage changes I just knew things were not right.however like I said jet is now happy and fighting fit I love her dearly
Thanks for this!
