Poor Gizmo

My poor pup has an infection in one of his paws. Poor little guy. You would never know it though. The only reason I was concerned was because he was always licking this same paw and it was getting to be more often. When I went to look at it more closely it just looked like maybe he had a fire ant bite or a little cut, but he let me touch it without any problems so I didnt think it was too bad since he didnt yelp or anything when I touched it. So as the licking got worse, I decided to take him to the vet and it turns out the little guy has an infection. So he is taking an antibiotic pill, an anti-itch pill, and I have to put drops on the actual infected area. The pills are no issue at all since I wrap them in cheese and anyone that knows Gizmo, knows he LOVES cheese. He does not like it though when I put the drops on his paw and he often has a little fit when I do it. He runs around and rubs his face all over the floor. Its a little funny to watch.
