Please, keep Anita in your thoughts

[Anita Cholaine]

She has been licking one of her paws a lot lately, and my dad just noticed that the skin between her toes is all red and swollen. It seems to be a really bad infection, and it looks like it hurts a lot. The poor girl always tends to hide the pain, but I'm sure that she is suffering. We're taking her to the vet now.
Can you please keep her in your thoughts? I really hope it's not too serious, and it can be healed easily.

okay this time of year its mold from the leaves. I would suggest washing her paws, pat dry. When she is asleep put some neosporan on it and watch for her not to lick.
I have one but the problem is new grass in the spring. I have my rescue that licks the inside of her leg when she is stressed. I do the same with the neosporan on her as well . I try distraction and she is getting better.. now a bossy little so in so.. rofl..

Poor Anita. I hope it's nothing serious! I'll be thinking of her! Please keep us updated.

Pawsitive thoughts headed Anitas way. It does sound like an allergy from grass or leaves possibly. Lacey has that, hers got infected also. Feel better soon Anita.

[Ginger's Mom]

Aww, poor Anita. I hope you can get the sore cleaned and healed quickly. Good thoughts going out for our sweet girl.

Poor baby. I'm glad that you were able to take her to the Vet so
quickly. I hope the meds help her clear up ASAP.

Wow, what a mental picture that conjures up.

She's still a bit sleepy, but her paw looks SO much better already.
She knows how to take advantage of the situation though, and she's managing to be totally spoiled rotten. It's imposible to say no when she looks at you with those eyes, like saying "I feel so bad, rub my belly!!"

That's great that it was nothing really big. Wonder why she kept licking it, probably was itchy and started to lick it a lot. Glad that it is looking much better now. After that she will be all back to her normal happy pup self.

Aww, Anita has those hound dog eyes, impossible to resist! As your hand must be ready to fall off from delivering all these bellyrubs from the rest of us, give her a kiss on her long Dachshund snout for me, okay?

Yup! Those huge liquidy brown eyes sure are hard to resist!
Hope Anita is even better today!

[Anita Cholaine]

Thank you everybody. Her paw looks a lot better (it's not swollen anymore) and it seems like she feels much better too.
She's being such a sweetheart... Giving her the pills is not a problem at all, and she will sit quietly until I finish putting the ointment.

Sorry about that one. I edited it to clarify the picture. Now it reads "I do the same with the neosporon on her as well.."
Sorry about that one guys.. I get really tired here lately by 6pm..

Poor girl! I'm glad she's got some meds and is on her way to being her normal self again.
I hope she continues to feel better, and gets completely well real soon!
