How about using bitter apple around the sore? That is if she doesn't like bitter apple.

What state do you live in? It's not a Brown Recluse spider bite is it?

Do you/can you get an elizabethan collar? That would be my only suggestion, then you can wrap it. Try vet wrap, a colorful stretchy wrap that sticks easily to itself.

I'm in Maryland. I don't know that we have brown recluses here, but even so - it's been 2-3 days since I first noticed her licking it and she acts fine - she's happy, hyper, her appetite is great, etc. I don't think that's it.

The collar would not go over well and again, I would hate to put her in something like that and then leave her all day for work. If it keeps up and she keeps licking, maybe I'll try it as a last resort this weekend. We're so busy getting ready for the baby, we'll definitely be around so I could keep my eye on her.

Thanks for the advice - I'll keep you all posted.
