My dog has hot spots and keeps licking at his leg to the point where it bleeds.?
What can I do to get him to stop licking his leg? I’ve taken him to the vet, medicated him and tried everything under the sun, but he still keeps at it.
Hi there.
You may have to get an E-collar (those lovely lampshades) to prevent him from getting “to” the area to lick it. They are making new e-collars that are inflatable that look more like a donut for your dog. They are easier on your legs when your dog runs into you!
Good luck!

Help! My dog licked up some hot chocolate on the carpet then bit me! Will he be okay?
My dog is a 12 year old small breed. I spilled hot chocolate then did not realise he was licking the carpet until a few minutes! As I was pulling him away he bit me (he has never attempted to or bitten me before and is up to date on rabies and other shots. It broke skin but did not bleed. ) I grabbed nearest blanket and put over head and sent him to his crate. Will he be okay?
You got 3 bad answers out of 4! How sad! That little bit of hot chocolate won’t hurt him a bit, and you did the right thing by putting him in his crate, even if you had to put a blanket over him to do it. I would do some training exercises with food to teach him that he can’t have it until you say so. He’ll be just fine!
