I'm sorry to hear that about your B boy. And you're right…military vets are really only there to cater to K9...so they try to get the "civvie" pets in and out quickly. (knows from personal experience...AF brat and spouse)
Hang in there!

I don't know for sure, but my vet told me that Lyme disease was highly treatable in dogs? Is that not true??

Lyme is treatable, it cant be cured, but if caught early its very treatable, but little symptoms come and go…no stopping that. :(

I don't know who your vet is, but we really (REALLY) like the Noank Mystic Veterinary Hospital. Dr. Sminkey handles Sophie and Stick with care and seems to know about basenjis in general.
Not a big fan of the other local Vets in our area.
Sorry to hear that Jack has been getting sick.

I am sorry to hear that Capt Jack is not feeling well. I have had first hand experience with USAF vets and I take mine off base, even in England, if I was able to. I hope he starts to feel better soon and have his appetite return. woo woo from Jojo…

Sorry to hear about Capt Jack. Did the vet put him on antibiotics?

I am sorry little Capt Jack has acquired lyme disease. BaMica's mom had it one time and she didn't feel too good about the lyme circulating in her body. Amazing what those almost tiny invisible critters can do. Hope Capt Jack feels better with treatment and antibiotics.
