Scarlet Fever??

Dax Really Had Scarlet Fever!!


I tried getting a picture of his HORRIBLE rash...but it just doesn't show it or give it justice! Last Monday Dax was so sick. We finally discovered (well Mutt discovered) that he had Scarlet Fever. I thought this was something from the olden days. I had no idea it was still around. Anyways, they just put him on an antibiotic and he felt a ton better after about 2 days. I just thought it was crazy. We had no idea where he got this, but sure enough he did! It took forever for his rash to go away too. It made his skin so rough and "chappy" feeling. It was so sad!
