[Gpdd] HEALTH: Re Mr. Brownie has a UTI

[Penny Charlesworth]

There are always a few boars who buck the trend that sows get UTIs!

It is good to learn how to expel urine. Hopefully the vet expelled all the
sludge but I know that you will be keeping an eye on his output and will
rush him to the vet if he has trouble peeing at any time.

Clearing out the perianal sac is a smelly but vital job but only takes
seconds and will make Mr. Brownie feel comfortable. I have to do this for
my Polo every morning and sometimes in the evening too. He is very
co-operative and runs a lap of his pen in delight when it is finished.

My Rodentologists had another look at Garnet's extra incisors the other
day. They were still too well embedded for extraction but he had them filed
right down. He eats all of his veggie strips but cannot bite a piece from
hard foods like carrots, which he loves. His back teeth are fine.

Hugs for Mr. Brownie and Mr. Cuddles. We are so pleased to read that he has
recovered from his stone surgery.
