Question: What should i do about my dogs swelling foot?

(Posted by: I ♥ TM on 2010-03-09 12:19:14)

My dog had surgery on Thursday to remove a growth from her leg. I've noticed that her foot was swelling on Saturday so I called the vet. She said to remove part of the bandage because it was on too tight. I did this, and it's still swelling. I can't take her to the vet today because I don't have a car, and no one will give me a ride. What should I do?

Get to the vet as soon as you can has the vet said it ok for her to have walks if so wrap it up well and may be walk to a bus stop and get a bus if not ring round some mates and sure your friends would be happy to help

You should try to get her to the vet. If you can't, then you need to at least call the vet. The swelling probally indicates an infection that must be treated right away.

Take a cab to the vet.
