I'm going to kill my dog!
« on: August 07, 2016, 09:46:12 am »
Only kidding!  I love him.  He has a hot spot right under his tail.  I took him to the vet and they gave him antibodies and a spray to put on it 3 times a day.  I swear this dog has licked the spot to death.  He has now made it bigger and looking worse.  I finally had to go out and get a cone for him.  Ok so cone is now on, but the dog is freaked out.  I'm talking about an 80 pound dog.  With cone on now he can't walk through a doorway, can't go outside (through a sliding glass door).  I have no idea why he is acting like this.  What a big baby!  :heart:

Sometimes an oatmeal bath will help relieve it.   Try looking up home remedies for hotspots.

Aww, poor baby. I hope he feels better. Have you considered contacting the veterinarian for some recommendations.

Wish ya had a picture of him to share.  Poor guy is probably miserable...that's gotta be driving him crazy!  I only had to cone a dog once.  The cone went on right after surgery so she was never able to aggravate the area to begin with.  Pets are our babies...expensive ones at that.

lol I'm not a dog person but I'm glad this was a joke.  I have to become a dog person soon though bc I told the kids we could get one next year.

Breath! :)

Picture it as YOU having a burning itchy annoyance that you cant do reach or do anything about, you wouldnt be very comfortable either, poor dog :(

Luckily Ive never had a dog myself that has had that problem but family members have

it can be hard on them when they have something new happening like the cone.  I'm sure he'll get used to it.  It could be worse with the vet though, our cat has to be sedated every time we take him to the vet...he attacks the technicians lol (he's a bit on the mean side)

Yeah, dogs HATE those cones, LOL.  There's better products out there.  Here's one sold at Petsmart that's an "inflatable" collar that basically does the same thing a cone does, only doesn't get in the poor animal's way getting out doors, etc.  Maybe you'll want to give it a try:

I learned one thing when I owned a big dog. they are the biggest babies when going to the vet. I used to have to pick my dog up and carry him in and he was about 100 pounds
