Today I am home w/a sore throat and cough and Finn is home w/me. I decided to put Tate in daycamp b/c for one thing, i think it's good to separate the two of them once in awhile, and secondly, Finn got beatup by big brother last night and had to go to the vet.
They had another ferocious fight last night and it seems that Tate may have bit Finn's eye. The vet took a look, did an eye stain to see if there was anything more, and sent us home w/eye ointment. Otherwise, she said Finn looks "fantastic"! Well, that was a bit of good news.
I swear, sometimes I do not know what to do w/the two of them and their competitiveness. Last night was b/c I had a realtor over to look at my condo and the boys were all over him, wanting his attention. Luckily he loves dogs too and when Finn saw that Tate was getting snuggles from Tom, Finn lunged at Tate and then the fight began. I eventually was able to separate them, with Tate bleeding from a surface wound and then I sent Finn to his crate. It was about an hour later that i noticed Finn's rt eye was red and swollen.
The vet today gave me some advice about how to alleviate this competing and i'm going to try very hard b/c i simply hate it when the two of them get at each other like that.
Anyways, i think Finn will be okay and mom is going to get some rest herself now!
