noticed last nite my dogs back foot was swollen.
ive had one oppinion on it wich i think is the prob but wat do you peeps go on it????

i was gonna give it a couple of days to see how it goes but im seriously thinking of getting her into the vets asap.

i ibby scrubbed it last nite wich leaned it up and has helped her walk on it better but the swelling is still there, its also weeping again now

attached are 2 pics.

Looks like it will need some antibiotics and maybe will need draining

Hiya

One of our dogs foot looked a bit like your girls when he got grass seed in it. Even though we cleaned it etc it did take a few days to settle down but he was ok.

Hope she gets better soon

Must admit, I thought a grass seed to. They can be a right sod to get out though and you have to make sure you get all of it.

It could be a number of things:
foreign body, such as a grass seed. may have even stood on something sharpe - making it painful and swollen.

the best thing to do is inspect the swollen foot, inbetween the toes and pad. move the hair around on the foot to inspect it further.

see the web link on how to treat a swollen paw: How To Treat a Swollen Paw | eHow.com

hope this helps!

ty daycare4dgs im gonna keep that link.

sorry the 1st and second pic are not all that clear, but ive just investigated a min ago and found a lumpy bit on her foot, it looks sore...maybe something got in thro there.

looks like im gonna ring vet sooner then i thort.
