MY bitces swollen paw has not got any better so she gone in to have an op today it would seem she does have something in there like my other dog had in the week ,his swelling burst and what ever it was came out ,so he didnt need the vets help that much ! but hers has stayed swollen for 3 days now and its the front leg wich is worse at first i thought it was here losing her drew claw that caused the infection but the the vet now thinks its the same as the other dog and shes got something in there thats not coming out well at least i will know what it is by 1pm today!

Poor Girlie.
Fingers crossed for you both,hope everything goes well xx

thanks sallyanne

Hi, is the dog a Bullterrier?
The reason I ask is because they do tend to suffer from dermoid cysts which occur inbetween the toes. One of my BT's suffered from them and they swell up similar to your dog in the picture. In the end they burst and leak fluid.
Might be worth mentioning to your vet as it could save you the fortune of an op if they can treat it with meds.
Best of luck.

she was in so much pain last night she couldent look at anyone!

god you are unlucky,, two dogs with something in there paw,,,,fingers crossed for ya Garry,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

all i own is bull terriers! and as you say they do burst as my othe dogs did in 24hrs, but her foot went the size of a base ball bat and it dident look like busting

she had 4 injections from the vets ands been on meds for the last 3days with still no change

Ahh, its horrible to see them in pain. Thats how my dogs went but it did burst in the end. It got to the point where it was so painful she wouldnt even atempt to put her paw to the ground.
