Hershey is getting really big. I hope he's almost done growing. He'll be 1 year old in November. He really needs to learn how strong he is. He'll jump up on you like he expects you to pick him up and cradle him like a baby, not realizing he's actually knocking you over instead.
He had a really gross problen with his ears recently. Each ear had a huge open sore. It looked like it would almost go all the way through to the other side and was always bright red with fresh blood. So I would clean it and put ointment on it regularly and it wouldn't heal. So I thought that maybe Palin was licking it too much because I saw her do that sometimes. So I separated them but still had no luck.
I als noticed there seemed to be alot of flies around. But since it's hot and our yard has chickens and dog poop, I thought some fly traps would do the trick.
Anyways, when I finally put everything together, I realized the flies were eating at his sores! Ewwww! So I had to buy a fly spray to put on the dogs. His ears started to heal in just a couple days which was great news. But still really gross.
You can see the top of his right ear still is missing some hair in the second picture.
