Sully scratched a little spot on his neck raw last week....and every time it tries to scab up and heal, it itches him, and so he scratches it right off.
I have tried watching him and not letting him scratch....but then he does it when I am gone and when I am asleep, so that doesn't work.
I have thought of an ecollar, but that would go around his neck on the very spot I need to protect...maybe even below that spot, thus defeating the purpose.
Today I broke down and painted some "liquid bandage" on his boo-boo......I know that stuff stings, bless his heart, and he'll probably just scratch it off too, but I didn't know what else to do. It's scabbed over several times by now and he keeps scratching it off.
I also put a turtleneck on him after I painted the liquid bandage (nuskin) and didn't fold the neck down. LOL. I'm trying!!!
Any recommendations, anyone? Please help I'm running out of ideas and I hate to see my baby hurting like this! (It's a dime-sized raw spot and when he scratches the scab off, it bleeds.
)
