I am sorry poor Badger is so ill. But glad that you can now see a possible
end in sight for his chronic ear problems. I would never put myself in the
position to scold anyone for the decisions they make for medical care for
their dogs. You are the only one who can see how the illness is affecting
the animals quality of life. And therefore are the only one qualified to
make informed decisions for the dogs medical treatment. So don't let anyone
else give you any grief for your decisoin. Please let us know how he does.
