Oh...she is cute!
Popcorn has an issue.
She started licking it about a week ago and it kept getting worse. The vet says she likely got something caught in her harness and had it rubbing against the skin. He sold me some antibiotics and a salve and a lampshade to keep her from licking it. No dog of mine is going to wear a lampshade. There's no way she would sleep in that thing, so I found a post surgical suit for her to wear.
Her butt is too big for it so I safety pinned it out of the way. She still has access to her important parts...
It took her a little while to get used to it. But as evidenced by the second picture, it doesn't seem to have impacted her ability to nap.
I believe that's called a "lick granuloma", basically a sore from licking. Snoopy had a growth removed from his front leg and licked the wound like crazy until it was a big sore too. I used Suitical recovery sleeves from Chewy, worked great. Took several months, but it's finally all healed up and he leaves it alone now.
There's a lot more of us ugly mf'ers out here than there are of you pretty people!

Hope Popcorn heals completely and quickly, very cute pup!

We've got a new kid on the block... Lexi is a 6 month old Jack Russell Terrier. Her former owners were surprised that JRTs are high-energy, high-activity dogs. Yeah...shocker.
She's really shaking up the Corgi crew... But she's kind of in JRT heaven with the goats and cows and armadillos to play with.

LOL, when we got our JRT we had 4 kids with another on the way, they almost had her tamed, then we picked up a GSD about a year later, that was a good match.
the JRT passed away during the vid, and the GSD about a year later, we had gotten the 3 rat terriers a few months before the GSD passed.
Now we have the 3 adult RTs and 2 puppies left, so 5 in all, 2 puppies are much easier than 3 or 6![]()
