[PyrNet-L] Re: Paddy is Growing Old

[PyrMom@aol.com]

Last weekend I took several of my *kids* to see Dr. Annette for check ups and
shots.  While there I mentioned to her several very recent things I have
noticed with Paddy.  

You may/not remember that several months ago he had a cyst on his right
eyelid.  Dr. Karen took care of it, we medicated and thought all was well.  A
few weeks ago I noticed the cyst was back.  Annette expressed the cyst but
advised that we have it removed surgically.  Have any of you experienced this?

Item 2 is that my 7.5 year old active boy has been having trouble putting
weight on his right rear leg.  Annette thinks it is a knee problem.  They will
do x-rays and other tests while he is *out* for the eye surgery.  Thoughts?

The last item is the really weird one.  Paddy has begun drinking the urine in
the backyard.  I have Paddy and four Tibetan Spaniels and it does not matter
whose it is.  I am trying to find out a cause for this rather odd behavior.
If anyone has any information about this kind of behavior, please e-mail me
privately at pyrmom@aol.com.  There is no pattern to his behavior.  We did
lots and lots of blood work and all tests came back 100% healthy.

If any one has thoughts on any of these items I would really appreciate your
comments and suggestions.  Thanks!
