  • Hey! So they say bad luck comes in 3s! We're wrapping Milo up in a bubblewrap swaddle and putting him in the baby carrier attached to us 24/7 haha. We get a few comments about both Phil and Niko and the red patches on the fur on their legs. This is hard skin from where they lie down and typically lower themselves down on one side. Having been concerned in the past ourselves we did our research and its common and normal for this patch of hard skin to occur just like ours on knees and elbows. On Niko however it has been repeatedly worn too much on hard surfaces and has split, become irritated and now infected. Niko is allowed to sleep on the carpet, heck even get on the couch if she wanted to but both of the dogs favour the cold hard floors. We've put down the cooling mats that were sent to inside as we were using these outside, these have a little give to them being a gel mat so that will be better for Niko. Both dogs have had numerous dog beds time and time again but they just don't like using them! For now, we will treat the infection with the medication provided and then try and keep on top of it with suitable moisturisers etc and further encourage a dog bed for Niko at least. The vet said once it happens its a regular reccurence so we'll try keep ahead of it! Niko is fine in herself we just caught her licking it thats how we initially found out. Phil has the same but relatively small in comparison a more normal looking size.
    Niko doesn't like the vets as you can see unlike her brother who strangely loves them!
    Thanks for watching guys, we'll keep you updated on both dogs as the days go on. Love from all the family xx

    Poor sweet Niko! I hope her elbow heals soon and perfectly ♥️
    This isn't an uncommon problem for some large dogs, and there's a dog bed pad that keeps them cool, I can't remember what it's called but maybe someone else here knows? It's a chew-proof pad, you put on top of a soft bed, and it keeps the dog cool.
    Edit: Lol my dogs do the same thing when they had to take a pill! 😄
    Edit 2 -- Yay! Someone told you about the cooling pad!
    Last edit lol -- Another trick is to put a small soft rug under the cooling pad, for a little extra padding. Or to put the cooling pad on carpet. The more pressure you can keep off her elbows when she's sleeping, the better.

    Infected elbows were a common all summer thing with our Labador. If he wasn't on a walk he had to wear his Hot Pink "leg warmers" (fuzzy socks with the toes cut out).
    - We cleaned the area in the morning, late afternoon and berfore bed in the begining.
    - We used Polysporin (but check with your vet) and applied a non-stick gauze pad.
    - To keep the pad in place we used COBAN wrap (a flexible self adhereing wrap) to wrap the area to secure the gauze.
    - A small peice of paper medical tape to make sure the wrap end didn't unravel.
    - The "leg warmers " were then applied to both legs and secured across his shoulders with two knee-high stockings that where tied (the contraption looked like a poorly made toeless stocking with a makeshift garter belt LOL!). This prevented the "leg warmers"" from slipping down when walking or laying down or him trying to pull the sock to lick the area.
    - He was never impressed no matter how handsome we said he was LOL!
    Ranger chewed his feet whenever he was in pain. But it was hard sometimes to figure out where the pain was unless it was visiable to us (e.g., his elbow or infected ears that was accompanied with a tilted head and 'lowered' ear).
    Get well soon Niko!!
