Blister?

Post by bannerd »

Koda has a white puffy blister on his rear foot. He's been chewing it and licking it like crazy. Anyone run into something like this?

Any possibility of frostbite? Last night and today were cold as heck in the Adirondacks.

oh poor fella! What has he been up to in the past few days? Running on hard ground, wood? Did he get it caught in something?

Yeah it might be frost bite? We went out on the ice a few times and I threw ball with him. Not sure how it would have happen though. His pads should have prevented that.. it's kind of on the inside. He does love digging holes but this is his back foot. I'll try the peroxide stuff tonight and then put some neosporin on it.

Also we go to the school and he really pushes there. He loves to play ball so bad that he will give it 150% no matter what. I would think that would be more of a scab? This is a weird looking thing..
