Oh, no - Sherpa the YouTube husky has "funny turns" (mind) & losing hair

[UTUSN]

Somebody here will know about what maladies huskies are prone to have. Been seeing these Sherpa videos for a few months and you get to "know" them. Just saw the first one below, where he's disoriented? Oh, no.

1. How old is he? All dogs can get dementia.

They get goofy just like that. With dementia there can be vision loss, even hallucinations. Or - what is the source of the injury with two holes? Was he bitten? He mentioned antibiotics, inflammation can imitate and/or exacerbate dementia.

3. First saw this today, don't know about the (bite?). All I've seen before this he's been fine.

I've had about 7 dogs over my life and a couple of times there have been some hot spots that cleared up with antibiotics. Don't know more.

2. The owner's trying to keep Sherpa going... they obviously love one another!!

4. Oh, yeah, have asked here before if anybody knew about these videos - no job, no family, just him &

the dog. Well, he has a daughter who lives on her own. They pick her up once in awhile for outings, joking that Sherpa and she have a love-hate relationship (of the MILDEST sort).

5. Still very sweet.
