Avatar m tn t vaccinate his dog regularly. If there was blood and the dog got saliva in the blood in your leg (if the skin was broken) you are at risk. But, you can call the police and have them make the guy monitor the dog for 10 days for symptoms and call the animal control about it. They will tell him the symptoms to look for in the dog. If the dog has no symptoms you will be ok. but then by the time you develop symptoms it is too late (there is no treatment at this stage).

436837 tn?1293793226 I am trying to train my 6 years old dog to use a ramp/stairs to get into the car.I tried putting his paws on the ramp one at a time he pulls away.I tried to use treats as incentive.he looks at me as if to say,"you go get it"and plants his paws and refuses to move.I am trying unsuccessfully right now to get him into the back area so he stays away from the shifting lever..he likes to ride "shot gun" and lay on it..that is dangerous.
Avatar n tn Is he holding the leg up or is he actually dragging the leg? Here's what to do: Stand him up on all four legs...Turn the bad foot under where he's standing on top of the paw....See if he can flip it back to the correct position.....If not: Read further..... This sounds like a disk injury to me......Google IVDD (Intervertabral Disk Disease) and read about it...
774189 tn?1235410421 MY DOG ATTACKED MY CAT TODAY AND MY CAT IS LIMPING BUT SHE STILL WALKS ON HER LEG AND WAS CLEANING HERSELF DO YOU THINK SHES GONNA BE OK?
Avatar f tn My own dog took this after a broken leg and it did her so much good. In damp weather she had started to favour that leg a little sometimes. As soon as she took the Glucosamine/Chondroitin supplement, it took about one week to see a great improvement. After that, she had no more trouble with that leg. She weighed 30lbs, and the correct maximum dosage for her was 500mg Glucosamine and 200mg Chondroitin once daily.
1323336 tn?1274712771 I think I will just out wait Sasha, I think she will stop digging when she gets a bit older. I HOPE. She has a broken leg and I thought that with her back leg broken she would not dig. No such luck. Once again thank you.
Avatar m tn She used to limp very slightly on a back leg which was once broken when she was younger. The vet said she would probably grow to develop arthritis in that leg, and it did seem things might be going that way, as any change in the weather to dampness, had her 'hitching' up that leg sometimes. Since starting the Glucosamine/Chondroitin supplement, she has not even done that once! My dog weighs 28lbs and the maximum dose for her is 500mg Glucosamine and 200mg Chondroitin.
20790334 tn?1506852360 I was recently in China. When I walked yesterday, I hit a stray dog beside the lower leg. After returning home for a few minutes, I lowered my head and took a sip of my pants. Then I took off my pants and looked at where I was hit. One place is peeled off. I use my nails to peel the skin. It may be rabies now. Should I be vaccinated? PS. When I hit the stray dog, I just thought it hit me, I don't think he bit me .(Because I didn't feel the dog bite me.
1340010 tn?1281960420 No because she just got knocked apparently.. and she has medicine that i have to give her yes. and i have to clean her leg twice a day.but she will be ok. she has a bandage on her leg.
Avatar m tn My dog has allergy and now she developed a black/dark brown thick and rough crust just superficially attached to the skin. It's about 2cm diametre on the leg near the armpit. It is broken on the side and when I try to open slightly, is easy to see that will hurt/bleed. Does anybody could give me some advice?
Avatar n tn I have a 96 pound female husky/Shepherd dog. I noticed that she was limping around and took her to the vet. He advised me that from an x-ray of the leg it looks like torn acl and to confine her for 2 months and will heal up and if not will have to perform surgery. No medication was given for the animal. And when the Vet says confined for 2 months does that mean that the animal is only on her legs to go to the washroom and then back to bed?
Avatar f tn Can you determine that the leg isn't broken? Will he let you move the leg at the hip joint? If he isn't acting like he is in severe pain, will eat and drink. I would try keeping him quiet and only take him out to potty. You know your dog best so you would have to make a judgement call as to if he needs the Vet.
Avatar f tn Last night we opened our backdoor to find a stray kitty (adolescent male). I noticed he was malnourished and gave him some milk and chicken (all I had for an animal). Then I noticed he was favoring one leg. I think it might be broken! I've called a few places and no one wants to deal with him, of course. They're just going to want to euthanize him instead of help him. So my question is this--- what do I do?!?!?!?!
Avatar f tn My dog just got deworming medicine and the worms have been coming out in her poop, but I was wondering if that’s the only time they come out or is it possible they come out anytime?
675347 tn?1365460645 I can give her a 500mg tablet then, as she is 28lbs. She had a broken back leg about 6 -7 years ago (before she came to live with me) and occasionally it 'twinges' her. Today it did that -she was not as keen to chase the frisbee as she usually is!- and I gave her a homoeopathic remedy Rhus Tox, which seemed to work miracles. I had to run an errand at 2pm, and when I came back at 3.30 the leg didn't seem to be bothering her.
Avatar f tn I rescued a little Chihuahua and named him Gunshot Sam. He had a broken front leg from a 22 gunshot wound. The vet splinted the leg. It was almost 5 weeks when I took him back to the vet because he had chewed his bandages and I thought they would re-wrap the leg. But, when they brought him out, they had removed the splint and had an E collar on him instead. I brought him home. He was on the floor in my living room eating some food.
Avatar f tn My dog Charlie is about four or five years old and we're unsure of his breeding because he's a rescue dog. He is a medium size dog, about the size of a collie but shorter in the leg. Over a period of several weeks I've noticed a change in his mobility, particularly when ascending the stairs, getting up from a resting position, and sitting down. His right back leg appears quite stiff after resting and when he gets up he has to stretch it out behind him before setting off.
436837 tn?1293793226 I know for a fact it has with my dog. She had a broken leg years ago (in her past life before I rescued her) Since then she has limped, and 'hitched' that leg from time to time, especially when the weather turned damp and cold. I started her with the supplement a few months ago in the Spring. I have not looked back! For testimony, she is leaping over hurdles 3-4 feet tall! She did that same thing today, chasing a flying bird! She took my breath away!
1696394 tn?1316235275 m not sure I am understand this right but seems he has problems with the leg/foot that was broken? I would think, the only you can determine what is going on for sure is take him to the Vet (possibly another one or an Ortho Vet if you have one in your area) and get an x-ray on that leg to see if they can see what's going on for sure. Other then that, no way to tell. I had a puppy break a leg years ago and had it casted but it stayed on!!
Avatar f tn Eventually, we will get to the service dog arena, we just need more socialization. She loves little babies and little kids, so gentle with them.
