Beau / Roger / whoever he is is doing ok today.  🙂  I feel bad for the poor guy because he just gets all over me because he wants to be petted, but there is literally no spot on his sad little body aside from his head, basically, that isn't covered in bumps and open sores.  🙁

He's on antibiotics for that so I'm sure he'll be better soon, but I've tried not to touch him a super lot.  I do wash my hands a ton, but I don't want to inadvertently get anything in his sores that would hurt him or delay his healing.

On a related note:  Since about yesterday afternoon he's barely made a sound.  I don't think that he's normally a talky doggie - I think he was literally begging for help before.  🙁  Those fleas were making him miserable.  Now that his meds have fully kicked in he's able to sit still and he only whines when we wants to go outside (either he hasn't realized that he can go out when he wants, or he is scared to go alone.  I don't know which, but he'll do it if I go with him.)

So, despite the crappy condition of his skin he seems to be feeling much better today.  He still looks pitiful, but hopefully not for long.  🙂
