On Thursday My Dog’s Front Right Leg Started To Become Very Sensitive. I Took Her…

On Thursday my dog’s front right leg started to become very sensitive. I took her to the vet where they said she had just torn some tissue. They prescribed her two different pain medicines and they seem to be working. As of an hour ago that leg randomly starting oozing this grey, bloody discharge. In the beginning there was a lot but it has slowed down quite a bit, still it hasn’t stopped.

    I would call my vet right away, or if they aren’t available I would at least call a 24 hour vet to get some sort of professional opinion if you don’t get a response from a medical professional on this website. I hope everything is ok!

    Sounds like she had an injury that wasn’t seen and it abscessed.  Get her to the vet in the morning.

Today Out Of The Blue My 7 Year Old Female Collie Starting Limping And It…

Today out of the blue my 7 year old female Collie starting limping and it has gotten worse throughout the day.

She isnt in pain or distress and is not off her food, just unable to put weight on her front left paw.

Its been about 8 hours now and shes gone from being able to put a little weight on it to walking on only 3 legs.

Im thinking it could possibly be a bee sting but was looking for advice????

    Firstly, I would beg to differ about the pain; there is a limp because there is a pain. Now, a limp in a front leg can be for a long list of reasons, sting could be one of them. Foreign body in the foot, infection in the foot … is there any swelling? But there could be an injury anywhere else on the leg and there even could be a neck issue resulting in a front leg limp (Jasmine had that).

    If you’re comfortable doing that I’d start with a thorough inspection of the foot, toes, nails, looking for any swellings, lesions, nail injuries, foreign bodies … If you don’t find anything on the foot, it could still be the foot (Cookie had a piece of a purcipine quill embedded between the toes which was totally invisible until finally it got pushed out with pus. But it also could be something else all together.

    My recommendation is if you don’t find anything obvious, see a vet. If you do find something obvious, you still may need to see a vet.

    Dogs express pain very differently than people do and they are not usually big babies about it. If not walking on that foot eases the pain she may have no symptom other than not walking on that foot. Since it’s been getting worse over the past eight hours I suggest you see a vet. Even if you examine her and find the problem it’s very likely she’ll require some kind of treatment even if it’s just antibiotics or antihistamines.

Found A Lump On My Guinea Pigs Butt And I’m Not Sure What It Is…

Found a lump on my Guinea pigs butt and I’m not sure what it is or what to do about it. It’s right above the butt where the tail would be. Don’t have money to take him to the vet right now. Is there anything I could do to help him without that?

    Hi, the pictures are not visible, can you try again? Guinea pigs commonly get trichoepitheliomas which are most commonly benign and the most common spot for them is near the tail/hind end. That being said, any mass on any animal has potential to be cancerous until proven otherwise. Your vet could aspirate some cells with a needle if the mass is big enough or simply remove it which is recommended while it is small. Even though trichoepitheliomas are usually benign, they can get very large and uncomfortable or ulcerated so removal while they are small (to prevent surgical complications) is recommended.

She’s Sick From The Cold Weather We’ve Been Having And She Gets Cold Easily So…

She’s sick from the cold weather we’ve been having and she gets cold easily so I assumed she’s just got a simple cold. She was shivering when I came home so I warmed her up. She’s been laying around since I’ve brought her to my room for a few hours now she doesn’t want to walk. She was walking fine when I first came home and she isn’t very old at all. She was fine just yesterday too. She’s alert she’s wagging she’s eating and drinking but she won’t get up. Is there a possibility her legs fell asleep? Or is there something serious wrong with her? Please help.

My 7yr Beagle Has A Sore On His Back Leg About As Round As A…

My 7yr Beagle has a sore on his back leg about as round as a pencil eraser and is drooling a lot. What could cause this ?

    Hi Elaine, perhaps a bite? Could toxin from it have got into his system? Thats just a wold guess from your description of his symptoms. Maybe you should pop him to your Vet for a firm diagnosis and the correct treatment.

    Good luck!

  2. Dawn Ferara, DVM

    Ok I’m really not sure with your description what is actually wrong with your dog.  I recommend a vet visit to see if the 2 symptoms are related.
