It’s been pretty hot recently. Big Steve is still under the mange treatment; however, he is growing his hair back! We also can see the cute white patch on his chest! I don’t know how long it will take for him to clear the mange.
This is sometime early in May:
Do you see how much hair he lost?
Now he is growing new hair!:) Do you see how much hair he has grown?
He even got his white spot back!
We are so happy to see he is doing better!
Now, like I said, it’s been pretty hot in GA. It’s pretty tough for our other pug, Sophie, to walk out side. So we take them separately. It works well. Since Big Steve is full of energy, my husband or I can take him 2 or 3 laps.
Beside, Sophie has been having a joint problem all these years. She is 10 years old now, so she is likely to have a joint problem. We’ve been giving OsteO-3 to Sophie since last August.
OsteO-3 is a comprehensive Joint Support Nutritional Supplement for Dogs.

Sophie is about 2olb, so the doctor recommended us to give 1/2 tablet to Sophie once daily.This tablet is really easy to break and she always eats this by itself without a problem.
Well, we have financial issues and we are trying to save money as much as possible, so we got a new joint tablet at PetSmart yesterday. The supplement we got was GNC MEGA HIP&JOINT HEALTH CHEWABLE TABLET. It was on sale and it cost us $16.19.

The one we’ve got contains 120 chewable tablets, but it’s harder to feed, comparing to OsteO-3. Sophie didn’t eat it by itself last night. So we smashed the tablet into powder and put it in her food so she could take it without noticing it.
The lady we met at the PetSmart yesterday had a cute pug. So I had a little conversation with her about the dogs. She said she also has a Labrador and that dog has a joint problem, too. She is giving “GNC MEGA HIP&JOINT HEALTH CHEWABLE TABLET” to her dog and it’s working. So we are hoping that this will work for our Sophie.
