So far, it seems that it has gotten better, but the sensitive skin around the anus, and the sore itself is hidden under that tiny little stump tail.
I'm not really sure if it's an glad issue, so far, the swelling is gone, and the redness on the areas I can see is gone. Does anyone have any advice on how to get a dog to let you lift his tail? |
The exact same thing happend to Chloe about 3 weeks ago. We rushed her to the vet after her bath, thinking it was something major...but they gave her a sanitary cut and she's been fine ever since. Chloe didn't like us to mess with her tail, that's why we have to keep giving her the sanitary cuts... Any groomer can do this for you, and it will help you to monitor the area and make sure nothing is wrong.
