Long story short. we had to take the other yorkie ( the new one ) back to the rescue shelter because he was too vicious towards Dusty. Dustys other paw is bleeding now. I used a magnifying glass , but I cant see whether its her pads , her nails ( which apparently have veins in ) , because her feet are so furry and she won't let us look at her foot. The majority of days she is walked twice. About half a mile each time , but this morning when it started bleeding , she hadn't been for a walk. I'd just been kicking a tennis ball in the hall for her , and about 30 minutes later my wife said " Dustys paw is bleeding " and there was a stain about an inch wide on the towel my wife was holding her in , and some smears on my wifes arm. Any ideas ? Its just weird that her right paw was bleeding about 2 weeks ago , and now its her left. The right paw cleared up and she was licking it all the time , and i expect this one will be the same , but im just wondering what it could be. |
I would take her to a vet and get them to look over her and u will feel better also . Keep us updated on her :D |
Thanks Bailie. We took her to the vet , and it turned out it was her Dew claw. Must have been too long , and she chewed it. Just discovered in the last few days that dogs actually have veins in their nails , so , for her , it would've been the same as cutting a vein on our arms. Vet cleaned it , put some dressing and bandage on it , and Dusty lay around for a few days licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking and licking.......... Took the bandages off today and she is back to her mad self , barking at a leaf floating past the door , chasing the mop.....:D |
I'm sure ur relieved lol, due claws can cause lots of problems , always be sure the nail is kept short , they catch into everything . Blankets , clothes, ect. The licking licking licking can annoy me sometimes too especially when I'm tryin to sleep :D but glad everything is ok now , happy new year :D |
