| She keeps licking her private area between her legs and there is a red spot on one side and brownish spots on the other side. She has also been urinating on the wee wee pads more frequently. Is this some type of infection? My vet is not open today or tomorrow, but I plan on calling first thing Monday. I'd like to know if this is serious and will he just give her some medicine? She is not in any pain, and it just seems about 1-2 times an hour, I see her licking between her legs. Is there anything I can do to help her before I get to the vet on Monday? Right now, she's on my bed sleeping peacefully and has no idea that her mommy is worried and posting on YorkieTalk looking for advice. Thanks! |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Put some vaseline on that area and call your vet when they open if she's having problems peeing - it sounds like nothing serious but you know her best |

| i agree. also, urinary frequency suggests that she may have a uti, and its possible that the rash on the skin is a result of excessive grooming/linking/rubbing near the place that hurts. just a thought
