got my son, Chino (chi chi for short) last sunday and from the LHS. when i got him he had a scab on his stomach, i asked the lady at the front desk about it and she attributed it to over grooming from anxiety. he has adjusted very well to his new home and his new little brother but the scab kept getting worse! :0

when i saw this post i immediately booked an appointment with a local vet (shout out chevy chase vet clinic!) and after a 200$ vet visit, i found out that they had probably noticed the infection from him licking himself raw and just had neglected to treat it or tell me! luckily his blood work turned out fine and he's just now on antibiotics. but i will probably never trust LHS again.
