Since the sailing day on the Lake, Ozzie has been diagnosed with "Collie Nose", DLE, a congenital, abnormal reaction to sunlight. It manifests as a crusty nose, with a lot of congestion, and discolouration around the nostrils. Poor boy has been sneezing and snoring something awful. He is taking cortisone and antibiotics and it is clearing up, but we have to keep him out of the sun. So he is retiring as sea dog. I will miss him.
