No one knows for sure what it was, but he started licking his back end, right next to his nubbin... {for he doesn't have a tail} until it was raw. It was thought that it must be a bite from a bug or a rash. Now the family who loves this dog dearly didn't want to take him to the Vet to be told it was indeed a bite from a bug or a rash, so they did the next best thing.
They gave him the "Cone"
Saying the Cone seemed so harsh, so one of the children...Tommy... noticed a great similarity between it and something else... Hence the satellite dish.
So now as the wonderful {neurotic} family dog wears his satellite dish, his back end is healing for it was just a bite from a bug or a rash.
It is quite funny though... because the satilite dish has velcro we often find the dog stuck to the carpet. Oh, but the velcro does provide a useful tool...caring the tennis balls back to be thrown again.
Alas, he does get time off for good behavior because, the poor thing just looks at his food and water because he can't figure out how to eat with it on.
Oh, and he won't pose for pictures while wearing the wretched thing.

Poor Captain! He looks so sad!
Oh my gosh. I'm seeing him walking around with tennis balls stuck to the satellite! Hilarious. But poor puppy. I hope his spot heals quickly!
