How awful, the vet prescribing penicillin to a piggy! Glad to hear little
Aeva came through with your loving care. Why didn't the vet check BEFORE
prescribing the medicine when you queried it? That really is bad.
Well done for rescuing a piggy in need. Did the "little dark dandruff"
show up as red when it was wet? If so, it could be little specks of blood
if she has some sort of bug infestation. If both her ears are closed off,
it could be earwax, which can be gently lifted away with a cotton wool bud
(Q tips). Light-coloured piggies have pale earwax, while dark-coloured
piggies have dark earwax. Might be an idea to get the vet to check her
over...not the penicillin vet, though.
