rschultz Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Hi, Thanks to all of you who replied. It is so nice to have people to ask questions. Now i have another. I just notice on Alexis that she is not aligned in her back legs by the ankle parts. Does that make sense? One ankle bone looks turned in. We see the vet on friday for the complete checkup but I was wondering if that is a common thing since they raced? Also, she will be getting her first bath after the stitches (Got fixed a week ago)are removed. what brand of shampoo is best as to not irritate her skin?

Guest BlackandBrindle Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 We use Earthbath Oatmeal and Aloe Shampoo. We get it from Gter Boomooanddoo who also uses it on her pups. Again, don't know about the ankles... do you know if she had any injuries during her career? That might explain it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I learned this the hard way....and left some shampoo on my black hounds.....they all got dandruff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbotaina Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 If she broke a hock (typically, the right hock), that may have resulted in a turned in foot if it healed a little funny (you are talking about the rear legs, yes?). If you're talking about the front legs, turned in feet are pretty common. My boy's front feet turn in a bit. Quote Meredith with Heyokha (HUS Me Teddy) and Crow (Mike Milbury).
