Get one of those neck cone thingies.....keeps'em from biting themselves. And the amusement factor is WAY HIGH also cause the dog will have coniptions youi've never witnessed till they get used to it.

The vet....usually they'll just let ya borrow one if it's not a big health problem you've got.

If they won't lend one out...they're pretty cheap and I have found out that they do come in handy from time to time...so it's not money wasted on a one time deal!

How about she wears one of those neck collars that looks like a cone just until whatever you have put on them has been on for awhile. The vet here puts them on dogs to get them to quit chewing on stitches or sores. They look like a cone kinda and are made out of plastic.

Off Lable use for "Dexamethasone" cc's by weight once per week.
Works on Hot Spots!

Try 1 shots and you should see a differance - if that works just use a shot when needed.
I have addes 5cc of med to Face Cream and rub that in.

Or use Hydrocortisone 1% cream @ Drug Store

Wash feet and Rub cream in 1 or 2 a day for a week and see what happens.

Just on the feet? Look at what it's walking in/on

I'm not a Vet! Just a breeder!
