wolfie333 Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Well my new foster mastiffx arrived today smelling like roadkill. When i was washing him i noticed his ears are all dry and cracked/tattered around the edges. Anyone know what might have caused this and should i put some ointment on it? I have a herbal calendula cream for humans would this be ok? His claws are also badly cracked is this a worry at all? and the end half of his tail has bald spots where the vertebrates are there are a few open sores but they look to be healing a bit, would this be because he was so underweight? He is a very sweet lad, it was heartbreaking when i washed him all the hair that came off, looks like he has not even had many pats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dackel Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Hi, Add linseed oil, sardines to diet. Calendula cream is great so is Paw Paw Ointment, Vitamin E oil, and Udder Cream. Hope this helps. www.moogoo.com.au Petra and felix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Are the ears likely to be fly bites? One of my dogs used to get ears like that during summer when the flies were really bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
