All wolves are doing well in retirement. Mackenzie has a reoccurring issue with a small growth on her left paw. It seems to be irritating to her and she continues to bite at it, causing slight weeping and bleeding. Mackenzie doesn't allow staff to touch it directly, but close inspections have revealed a wart like bump, with no hair. She has had this for several years, but it seems to be more irritating to her recently. Topical antibiotics are relatively ineffective, as she licks them off. We will continue to monitor this condition.
