 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?:confused: | 
| 
 I'm trying to figure out how to post a picture of it so you can see it better.. | 
| 
 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. | 
| 
 I was thinking anal glands, too | 
| 
 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. |
