Did it go away on its own or did you have some kind of treatment (assuming APs)? How long did it last? It's horrible because this dog is looking at me hurt that I don't want anything to do with him, and I keep trying to tell myself that it is Max, but I know it's not and its creeping me out.
I don't know what to do!
I can only do something about this if it's a symptom of an illness, because if it's real, then what can I do against the Govt?! But all I can do is try to get a GP appt for Meds, but that's not until Monday and it normally takes 3 weeks to get an appt, not even factoring in Xmas & NY or if my GP has booked additional time off! Unless I say it's an emergency, but crying isn't an emergency...
Idk! I need to pull myself together and go Xmas shopping. Maybe they'll swap him back when I'm out? Otherwise I don't know what to do
