Phil's Health Update! Back At The Vets Again!!



It’s becoming a routine occurence now in monitoring and adapting medication to combat and control Phil’s cushings. For those of you that wonder, thiis is why he has alopecia, muscle wastage and is yellow in colour. Believe it or not he was once the exact colour of Teddy! He’s lost so much size and fur over the years while we chased a diagnosis. Whilst he’s not cured, havind a diagnosis and treating it will inevitably provide him a happier and healthier life. The only problem is the levels the drug is controlling have to be continually checked and dosages changed accordingly. He’s had a recent blip with a spate or going to the toilet accidentally in the house and excessive drinking. Both a sign that his levels are off so you have to adapt and chase the required levels again which isn’t an instant thing. He’s so happy these days though, more upbeat and energetic!

  1. For just a New York minute-I thought the baby next to you was Amelia and then of course reality set in and I knew it was Nathan. Talk about deja vu.
    Hope Phillip is good. Love all 3 of your dogs and Milo, but Phillip has my ❤️

  3. Philly Bear! It breaks my heart that you go through so many tests/shavings/needles. Hoping that would all lessen for you for the rest of the year. Feel better soon. We love you and wish you well. You are still the cutest for all of us– fur or furless and energetic or not. 🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘

  4. It is all the Waxxines that cause the health problems in our animals these days…..same thing they just tried to do to us with Sea Nineteen. Absolute insanity what these monster's have done to our four legged friends.
