Thanks, will look into it

My boy gets one capsule of Maxepa 1000 plus Glucosamine with condroitin 1 capsule a day (for arthritis and for his skin) The vet said half what we give for humans should be fine for my dog (7kg)

OOOhhhpsssss, ai no thanks I bet it was worth it though Hope your baby is OK

Why are you so reluctant to take him to the vet? I think that would be the sensible thing to do rather than play around with things/remedies that may make the situation worse. The longer you leave it the worse it may become. That would be because the vet has cost me $200 last month already...like I said, my Mac is a sensitive little popet That's why I am trying to sort it out myself if possible, if not a vet visit is definitely on the cards AGAIN

Makes sense, ta will TRY to cut the hair between the pads( if I can...)

MMhhh "Wandering Jew" is that politically correct I haven't changed his food and he doesn't have a rash on his tummy( though he is low enough to the ground). Don't think that I have Wonderin Jew, as I ripped out all the weeds and stuff months ago Will give the apple cider thing a go though, am really trying not to run to the vet every 2 mins(as I do, cause I don't like the idea of my baby being uncomfortable), but he is going to be my financial downfall if he keeps it up Such a sensitive little popet Thanks heeps T-time

I think it's called wandering DEW

Thanks guys, appreciate the feedback ;) he doesn't seem to have aggravated it any further at this point, but I am worried that it could turn into a habit

Thanks for that, will give it a go...Thought that I'd end up at the vet again...just can't stand when someting is wrong

My Mac has started to lick the inside of his paw and on checking I found that some fur had matted and I cut it out, but he is still licking(chewing) the area and it's getting really raw!!! I have put some ointment on that has an anaesthetic in it and it tastes yuck (trust me I tried It :rolleyes: )! Now it seems a little infected and I put some disinfectant powder on the area(this is for humans actually...is that OK???) To add to my trouble he has started on one of his front paws now and he is chewing the front part...red raw also... Has anyone got any ideas about what could be going on??? He did this all before once and he turned out to get a skin infection all over him in the end. The vet gave him antibiotics and a special shampoo for this...could the infection be coming back...??? Please help if you have any ideas Thanks

;) Oh boy, watching your beautiful montage just made me cry He was such a beautiful big boy, with those brown eyes and such a lovely face. I am so sorry for your loss and I feel your pain! But just think how lucky you were to have loved him...

My thoughts are with you! I am so sorry you had to go through that
