| Scratching/blood. My Yorkie started scratching herself by her tail last week, and yesterday, she began scratching so hard that it bled. Today, when I got home, I checked and around her tail she was bleeding a lot. I'm taking her to the vet tomorrow.. Any suggestions on what it might be/what I can do to help her? |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | How can she reach her tail ??? It sounds like she could have fleas - have you looked really carefully at her underside ?? Poor baby - hope you can find what's wrong but in the meantime - why not try putting some anesthestic cream on it ?? |

| A picture would be great. Is it by her tail or could it be an anal gland? My Joey had an anal gland burst a week ago, but is all healed now.

| Is it a hot spot? Like, an area rubbed/scratched so much it became raw? I use a spray that has tea tree oil, chamomile, and aloe vera every four hours and I apply a triple antibiotic ointment to the site before bedtime. Most of Duke's are gone by the morning when I do this.
