At least she was clever enough to run to the kiddie pool and dunk her bottom. Ant bites are terrible and some have a bit of venom in them.<br /><br />Mango MommaDexterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09238751458587219022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905610385807403881.post-8864710891804389592013-01-02T21:33:46.861+11:002013-01-02T21:33:46.861+11:00i was kinda thinking about spreading them ants out...i was kinda thinking about spreading them ants out on a white sheet... and separating them by size and fearfulness... and then probably give them a lecture on being nice to humans and especially to our dogs.

He was growling at my dad in the backseat... then i had to stop the car... move him to the front.. he went for a pee.. and a stroll.. and came back biting and trying to get some thing off from his paw... he was making strange sounds. Could be those big red ants. But i don't really know why he was growling at my dad... *LOL*<br /><br />But no lemon drizzle cake for him. Its scary when they lie on their side and refuse to budge... hope she is much better now.

Since everything appears to be okay, I had to giggle a bit imagining what must have been going through Georgia's mind when you dumped the water on her.

Dogs with a problem with the cervical spine often get 'pins and needles' in their feet and will lick them to try to resolve it.
