One day while I was grazing I began to feel an itch. The weird thing about it was that it was on my butt. Not knowing any better I scratched it of course. With me not knowing what was going on I just kept scratching and scratching, but the itch would never go away. I even scratched until I was losing hair off my hind end! I guess my owner had noticed me scratching my butt on his fence and had noticed that I had bowed the boards out of shape, so he took me to the vet. One of the scariest places ever! When we arrived he let me out of the trailer and left me tied up to the trailer while he went inside to talk to the doctor. The itch was getting worse by the minute. I was even scratching my butt on my trailer in front of everyone! I drew in a big crowd, every one was laughing at me, and I was deeply embarrassed but I couldn't get rid of the itch. Finally, my owner came back out and took me in to the doctor so he could look at me. After a few minutes of looking and feeling around on my butt, the doctor came to a verdict. He came to the conclusion that I had Scratch-Ems-Hind disease. He also said that the itch would never go away and that my owner might want to build some new steel pens so I could keep on scratching with out bowing the boards out anymore. I got to say, these metal pens does a real good job scratching your hind end for you.
