Baggy's daily state!

Anxiety (From 1 = barely any to 10 = gibbering wreck standard): 6.
Tears: No.
Overall day: 💜
When the vet phoned Furry Mama last night, she said that she couldn't see any mites in Minty's skin-scrape when she looked at it under the microscope, but "there were bacteria having a wild party". It occurred to Clever Bird at 4 o'clock this morning that presumably the vet won't operate on Mint's lump, until the skin infection has cleared up. It's going to be a risky op. anyway, as there will be barely any skin to sew up once the lump is removed, so the last thing they'll want is partying bacteria getting in on the act.
So Furry Mama washed Minty's poorly skin with anti-bacterial wash again this morning. Fortunately he loves it. Well he would wouldn't he? He's a boy and it's all round his groin area! Then Clever Bird decided that more salt water would also help. But Furry Mama wanted a beach that was sandy rather than really pebbly, for Mint's sake. They ended up at Pakefield. Baggy's never been there before. Once again there were pebbles, but at least once they were at the sea's edge it became sand - much easier for achy paws.
Minty Mutt was very keen to get in - unlike yesterday! He bit off a little more than he could chew though.
Bless him, he was a little taken aback!
They all had a little wander up the beach and past the semi-detached Church(es), with their thatched roofs.
With the best lawnmowers ever! Furry Mama loved them.
Time for the usual tea, before heading home and washing Minty Mutt and Billy Bob Jalopy......
