Buddy (2005-2015)
Breed: English Springer Spaniel
Colour: Black and white
Age: Adult (approx 10 yrs)
Sex: Male neutered
Health: General health is good.
History: He was taken to a local shelter as a
stray. Suffering from an aggressive pseudomonas
aeruginosa bacterial infection in one ear, he has
been on a regular veterinary regimen to fight this
nasty condition.
He is now very happy that his pain has lessened.
He is very reactive to treatment of his ear and it
has become necessary to have him put under
anesthetic to clean his ear and groom.
This dog will likely be a "forever foster".
