A year ago my dog started with a itching problem and he had scratched himself bald spot near the tail and the rear back. Took him in, they gave him a thorough exam and they thought it was an anal glad issue as it was a little inflamed and I could see the logic of that. They took him back and shave some of the hair around the bald spots that where infected so they would heal better and cleaned them up. They gave me antibiotic and inflammatory. All good with this visit with the vet we had always seen since we first visited 7 years ago. Things heal over the next few month he was still itching, but nothing that caused bald spots. Then came round two and he scratched himself open ever worst. I made a new appointment. This time I saw their newest Vet Dr. Mann. She had a bad bed side manner and a bit unpleasant. I wasn't really happy interacting with her at all. She didn't really look at my dog that much and interacted less. She asked me a few question, gave me little information and sent me home with a antibiotic and . The inflammation went down, but the itching continued when it was done. This time I tried shampoos to help the itch. I had some success, but in another several months he had a bad itch outbreak and we were back. I asked not to get Dr. Mann this time, but when I went to the appointment I was given her. This time she examined him even less and gave me nothing, but some gauze with a solution she said they use in surgery. Was kind of unset after that. I massaged them about the itching a few weeks later. They told me that Dr Mann had given me options, but I turned them down, I told them I was give no option. They gave me the option then and I picked a allergy injection. I was on it for four months with no real change from what I had been seen. itching off and on and once he caused a bald spot, until the end of February. He then got the worst reaction yet two weeks into the the fourth injection. At this point I should have found a new vet, but gave them another try. Again I asked to not get Dr Mann. I got there and we were give a just a vet tech. She looked him over a bit more the Dr. Mann, but not as much as much as the vet I had always seen in the past. The vet tech then looked at me and said that "we have no idea what is causing his itching". I really wanted to say something rude at this point as I was frustrated, but didn't. Just took the antibiotics, an allergy pill this time and left. Once the antibiotic were done the itching returned and the new allergy med was doing nothing. I messaged them about this and I got radio silent from them. So I start to look for a new vet and something I could help with on my own to control some of the itching. I started use a blend of coconut oil and Shea butter on his hot spots and that would at least calm them down over several hours. So far the new vet has been much better them my last three visits to Elk Creek. She asked me all kind of question, got on the floor with my dog and examined him very well. She could smell a yeast smell from him, even smelled his ear, she said for one he either had a fungal infection or it was most likely yeast build up on his skin from him lick and biting at himself. She told it could a thyroid issue and what to test that so she was changing something it wasn't, it wasn't so they took him off and cleaned him up. The vet went off to work out the bill as I was limited on money at the moment after the last three visited to the old vet. Anyways she seems to have figure it out, we still need to adjust the meds going forward. I wish that Elk Creek was still like that, but from my last three visit they aren't. Sad

Ragdolls originate from California in the late 60s from a woman named Ann Baker. Our cats are treated as if they are our children. They are extremely spoiled. My family picked up the interest of breeding Ragdoll cats in the year 2018. We had our first litter in 2020. The kittens are family raised & talked to everyday, once their eyes open & are able to walk that’s when we begin to hold them. Once they reach 3 1/2 weeks old we allow them out of the playpen to explore! We begin litter training also at that time. At about 4 weeks old we introduce food & water to them. Everyday the kittens are out and about exploring & getting held with love! They’re raised with children which they also love & other pets too! I take a lot of pride in breeding my cats, and I can almost guarantee you will be happy with your new best friend!
