Milo is due for a blood test which will tell us where he is with his monocyte and neutrophil levels and this will hopefully tell us what the next step of his treatment will be with the herb mixture from the U of MN. We will do this blood test in a week or so.
While externally Milo is so much improved, his poor immune system was so compromised that it is truly amazing that he has recovered to the level where he is currently. He looks like a lion with the giant mane he is now sports.
Milo took a turn on sheep at a location where he has not worked and these sheep saw him and though they were heavy (very willing to stay with handler) for the Aussies who normally work them, they saw Milo and reacted in a very unsettled manner. It was if they were saying, "Holy s_ _ _! What it THAT?!"
The good news for me is that the patient work with Milo's reluctance to come into the garage and through doorways has paid off. Now the garage is a good place and he trots right into it. No longer a trap for him. Yay! I was worried about having to coax him in while mosquitoes swarmed into the house.
Milo visited his friends at the pet store and, enablers that they are, allowed him to shoplift treats. He's quick for that! Naughty!

Visit with the past
15 May 2013
Milo met up with a former acquaintance this week. While another dog had a vet visit, he just came in for a social call. Heather, a tech at Skyline Veterinary Hospital was in on Milo's first day and had a hand in his shave to the skin and de-ticking ordeal. Heather has not seen Milo in many months and was thrilled to see his luxurious full coat.

You can ring my bell
5 May 2013
I was awakened at 4:30 am by a ringing bell.
My first collie, as well as being my first "used" collie, arrived with the instruction that she rang a bell when she needed to go out. And after she proved to me that a bell was the only way she knew how to ask to be let out, we got a parrot bell and hung it on the door. Subsequently all of the collies at our house learns to ring the bell to go out.
Milo rang the bell because he needed to go out.
Good boy Milo!!
