the other night i noticed hazel was licking her LEFT front leg, so after i tried to figure out what it was and couldn’t, i asked keith to take her to the vet. (her appointment was during my work hours). keith went to the vet and was told/shown hazel has a cut on her RIGHT leg. so keith texted me to tell me i had the leg wrong blah blah blah (but i know what i saw!) anyway, after she came home from the vet, and i came home from work, hazel sat down and started licking her LEFT front leg again. thankfully, this time, keith saw (ha!) and investigated. he pulled some sort of something (maybe from a bush?!) out of her hair and she stopped playing with the leg.
here is hazel with her bandage. (she goes back monday for check up)
and i have NO idea how/where she got cut. be careful hazy!
close up of bandage.
she is the sweetest dog.

my dog ruby ( llasa/peki-poo mix) licks her front left leg frequently. she’s an amputee (front right leg gone) so probably the remaining front leg is extra special to her now-plus it does the work of two !
anyway, hazel is fortunate that you guys are so quick to notice her symptoms/get treatment!

Poor Hazel. Be sure and give her some extra hugs and kisses!

So sad. I hate when pets are hurt because they can’t really tell you what’s going on. My mom’s dog all of a sudden started getting swollen glands and they found out she has lymphoma so she probably won’t make it much longer. 🙁 So horrible. It came on so suddenly and she keeps getting worse. Poor Hazel! I’m sorry to hear that. I hope she gets better soon. At least she gets a cute bandage.

The bandage makes Hazel look like a feather duster.
