You should check with the vet to verify what it is exactly. My friend's black lab would get something like that on one leg all the time and it ended up being that he had bad allergies and was licking and nibbling that spot due to the itching which in turn formed a wound. There are lots of things that can be done to help if that is the problem.

Question. . . Logan has this spot on his front leg that is red, sometimes seepy, starting to scab over and he's constantly licking it. He gets the same spot in the same place every 6 months or so. Other than the licking, it doesn't seem to bother him. So my question then, does anyone have any ideas what it is and how to get rid of it?

update on Bunny's torn ACL and weight - her right rear ACL is all healed, no residual damage evident at this time, though I'll keep her on a supplement with MSM, Chondrotin, fish oil/omega 3's etc for joints and tissue health.

She's lost 5 lbs so far! Still a ways to go before she's at her goal weight of 23-25, but with the good report on her knee more walks in the picture.

Please help if you can . . . pass along to other dog lists (I've already sent it to corgi-l and showcardi)

Thanks,
Melissa Bee

Anthony and Debra Pepe asked to post and request that you repost to any 'doggy' lists with members who may live in the area.

Their beloved 3 year old red and white Pembroke Welsh Corgi bitch (in show condition) escaped from being temporarily boarded in the Elkton, MD area early this week, and despite great efforts by everyone, has not yet been located.
She is microchipped and friendly, although undoubtedly frightened (they've had severe thunderstorms in the area which haven't helped with that, or with tracking efforts).
Please remember this little dog and the Pepes in your prayers, and reach out to any other lists in case there are any dog lovers in that geographic area MD/PA/DE) who may still be unaware. Anthony has to return to work in NJ this next week for a few days but will be back in the MD area soon--his cell phone # is 732-713-1709 and you can leave a message with any info or sightings.

The Furminator!!! followed by a bath... in my case, the shedding lasts almost a month!

Hi Bev,
I talked with my friend and he asked what type of shot your dog receives? They haven't tried that yet with their corgi and are interested in asking their vet about it.

Your welcome Cathi. They told us at the Vet school that they rarely see corgis with a lot of allergies so I guess we just got lucky!

Hi Bev,
Thanks for your info; like you,my friend has already done the allergy testing with his dog. I'm not sure if they do the shots but will pass along the info to him. I suggested he join mycorgi.com since its been so helpful with information in many different areas and its just fun.
He loves his dog and is just stumped with this. Glad to hear your Sparty is doing well with this treatment plan.
Thanks again,
Cathi
