Hemophilia, right? If you (/the rescuers) are open to it, I would highly suggest looking into the Chinese herbal Yunnan PaiYao. I personally do not have experience with using it on a hemophiliac dog, but I've seen it stop bleeding on a greyhound's broken toe when nothing else seemed to....we thought the dog may have had a bleeding disorder (genetic and/or tick-borne).
It is pretty well-known (as far as Chinese herbals go)....and even has a history of use by U.S. soldiers in the Vietnam War!
Best of luck to this pupper!! Please keep us updated.
Many thanks to Roxyluvsme13 & k9krazee for my great new siggy!!

Yes, it is the equivalent of human hemophilia. Thanks for your reply! I'll pass on the information.
