Poor Ari has a double ear infection... Thank goodness I found a Vet I liked... They were great.. He got a shot of steroids and drops and ear flush.. I felt so sorry for him.. He seems better ... However now he's itchy. Do you think it could be from the shot? Here he is chilling after being tortured at the vet sweet boy!!!

Where is he itching? His ears?

Poor Ari... Feel better bub.

**Leila'sMommy** · 12-01-2012, 09:54 AM

Aww, I hope he's all better soon! The steroid shot should actually help with itching.

Ari is adorable. I am not sure if your saying his ears are itchy but I think your saying his body is itchy. If he is scratching his body it could be a reaction from the injection. If he is still doing this later on I would call the vets office and let them know. Hope he feels back to himself soon.

Get well soon little fella .

He is a beautiful little guy! I hope he feels better very soon! Ear aches can be very "ear-i-tating."

You probably want to call the vet, he is likely to put Ari on benedryl, which will reduce the itching and also make him sleeply.
