Sooo, um... my black lab that I rescued from starvation is apparently having some troubles with her legs. I had posted a question before and thought she possibly had mange, but no. It's hot spots... On her left back leg, it's a huge spot of fur missing and it's all irritated 'n stuff from her chewing on her feet. And on her right back leg, there's a round almost penny-sized irritaed spot... They're both all oily 'n secreting (sp?) nasty fluid... Ack... It was a couple nights ago, that I noticed all this, b/c her left back leg was swollen. Since then, the swelling has gone done and maybe even gone away completely... Yes, /I know/, I should bring her to the vet, unfortunately, we don't have money for a vet right now... At least she's better off now than she was at her previous owner's house. If she was still there, it wouldn't be taken care of at all, /and/ she'd still be starving....
