beatingisbest Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 a gamekeeper i used to work for had 2 labs both of which had 1 or 2 lumps on their back legs, never effected them, its worth taking the dog to the vets anyway, just to make sure.

henry d Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 If there`s pus then there is infection,I`d get it to the vet.My young springer removed a toenail back to the nailbed and never made a sound,we only knew as the kitchen floor was covered in blood You`ll probably just get anti bio`s and a quick clean.

LONG STOCK Posted January 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 had him to the vets. its wet eczema which can occur in isolated patches on the body. there was no lump just swollen, got anti-b's and cream to help kill the bacteria..

darebear Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 had him to the vets. its wet eczema which can occur in isolated patches on the body. there was no lump just swollen, got anti-b's and cream to help kill the bacteria.. bit of advice for wet eczema. trim any excess hair away (because it sticks), and clean with salt water (not from the ocean ya daft sod :blink: ). it'll dry it out.
