Guest BlackandBrindle Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Sadie is completely lame in her front right leg. She's had problems with this foot before and fwiw, this was the leg she limped on when she was first diagnosed with valley fever. I got her a boot from Petsmart (going to order a therapaw) and lined it with moleskin. Have any of you used moleskin on the actual paw? Corn pads? I'm soaking it and keeping it soft with bag balm- it's either a corn or a foreign body. We have been through this before but looking for more ideas...

HopeForHounds Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 (edited) Poor girl, that seems unfair to have something else wrong. Can you see the corn, it looks like a whiteish circle either raised or not. I had success giving Jake bee propolis, I know others have not. I bought capsules and threw them in his food. Corn was gone in 3 months. Sorry meant to comment on your actual question I don't know if the pad would stay on. She might try to eat it off. It makes sense though since the corn pad has a hole and that is what takes the pressure off the sore part.

Guest MyBoys Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 My senior guy had a huge corn that I was finally able to remove, I had posted on another spot about how I got it out. But I did put a nice thick piece of moleskin right on the pad to help cushion it while I was working on removing the corn and it REALLY seemed to help, he actually stopped limping on walks. If you want to PM me I can explain what I did to get the corn out, so far it has not come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
