Beau spent the day getting totally shaved down, toenails - which were so long his feet turned in - trimmed, ears treated and his nose taken care of. Initially it was thought that the nose area "may" be cancerous but upon further examination, it was determined that it was not - HURRAH - and will heal with treatment and antibiotics. We are still having to use a sling - yes all 109 pounds of him in a sling - to get him outside to relieve himself. He has no muscle tone in his rear legs and will take rehab to build up the muscles. Let's hope tomorrow is a better day in that department.
