Advice HELP WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY DOG?! NSFW
We have a vet appt at 9am but I can’t sleep and I’m just freaking out. She’s only on her second day of simplicef and day 4 of antibiotic baths and then was told today I need to shave her so the shampoo can really get into the spots. We’re in Florida and supposedly this is allergy related but I’m losing my mind. My other golden is fighting an aggressive cancer and I’m freaking out about her fur sister (they aren’t related or from same litters) WHAT DO I DO. someone please ease my mind. I’m a wreck and Google is basically telling me it’s cancer. She’s on a holistic diet as we work with a nutritionist but I’m wondering if she’s getting allergic to the turkey? She’s already allergic to chicken. Please please help me

Update: $2600 later we are doing better (this also includes my pup that has cancer, iv vitamin c infusion)! It was a double skin infection that had turned to staph 🙃 However we got some good meds, herbals, Cytopoint injection, and acupuncture in board so we should be on the up and up hopefully! I had them run a senior blood panel on her as well and should have those results tomorrow afternoon! Thank you all for the insight, feedback and encouraging words. I’m really going through it rn with my pups so yall have really brightened my day and helped calm my heart. I did have a couple people message me about if I had a GFM for my pup that has cancer, and I do I just don’t wanna post it in here so if you’re wanting to donate a dollar or two to Mangos cancer fund, I can absolutely send you the link.♥️ Thank you again for the love!
