Dad2Paisley Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Our Thorpe has a hot spot near his back by the begging of his tail. We been using Life's Abundance Soothing Mist spray. He's still licking the area. Any other ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyRunDog Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 I think you need to take him to the vets or do you have access to a video vet? In the UK this is often included with the pet insurance.

macoduck Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 How far down his tail? There is a gland on the topside of the tail that on some greyhounds makes the area hairless called "stud tail". No treatment needed.

Dad2Paisley Posted December 6, 2022 Author Share Posted December 6, 2022 It's actually after looking at it again. It's on the back by hind legs bones at the top of the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macoduck Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Are you keeping a muzzle with a stool cup on him to prevent licking? Any chance of this being an anal gland issue?https://www.petmd.com/dog/care/evr_hot_spots_what_are_they Quote Freshy (Droopys Fresh), NoAh the podenco orito, Howie the portuguese podengo maneto Angels: Rita the podenco maneta, Lila, the podenco, Mr X aka Denali, Lulu the podenco andaluz, Hada the podenco maneta, Georgie Girl (UMR Cordella), Charlie the iggy, Mazy (CBR Crazy Girl), Potato, my mystery ibizan girl, Allen (M's Pretty Boy), Percy (Fast But True), Mikey (Doray's Patuti), Pudge le mutt, Tessa the iggy, Possum (Apostle), Gracie (Dusty Lady), Harold (Slatex Harold), "Cousin" Simon our step-iggy, Little Dude the iggy ,Bandit (Bb Blue Jay), Niña the galgo, Wally (Allen Hogg), Thane (Pog Mo Thoine), Oliver (JJ Special Agent), Comet, & Rosie our original mutt.
