    Where this should go is Dog Health, and I will move it there.

    It is hard to tell how big the wound is, but she should be seen by the vet to make sure it isn't infected, and then bangade it up. I also think the shaving could make it worse, an old towel or something else less "pokey" would help once she's home.

    I can't stress enough how important it is to get her veterinary care! I don't understand why your mom doesn't seem to understand that!! If it were your pom she'd bring her to the vet, wouldn't she.... anyway I know this is in no way your fault at all, just keep an eye on it, make sure there is no swelling or green puss, or puss at all. Clean it daily.

    What I'm thinking is that there was no padding on the bottom of her crate or cage or dog house and the hard flooring could wear the fur and skin down. But the picture you have is VERY hard to tell since its so blurry

    Bunnies do often get hock sores when they live on a grid. For now, I'd bandage it and keep it as clean as possible until she can see a vet. When animals are hurt, they NEED to see a vet. Legally, it's animal cruelty to not take your pet to the vet when she is injured. She can easily get a bad infection without proper treatment, which will only rack up the vet bills much, much more and could lead to more serious illness. Please tell your Mom that.
