staff infection

Talked to John Wilson today and he informed me they wont be taking Arkie Jr. (A.J.) to the zones. Says A.J. has a severe type of infection that has him broke out all over and his feet swole up twice their normal size and bursting open. Said the vet came out to his house to look at him today, they have sent samples off to U of Okla.. Vet said if they dont hear back from them soon they will just take A.J. to the school. Anyone ever heard of any thing simular?

Our dogs feet swelled really bad one time..

But she's 5 and the vet said that it was from hunting her so much and maybe a little arthritis.

Dont sound anything like what that dog is experiencing.

Hope he gets better though!

A dog can get a skin infection commonly called a staph infection and it can progress to the point that it covers much of the skin under the haircoat. Often the skin has an odor and many infected postules under the skin. One cause is from being severely roughed up by briars or other tough undergrowth. Untreated, it can make the dog feel like his skin is on fire the instant he brushes up against anything, even some grasses. It can be treated with the proper antibiotics and medicated shampoo. Hope this helps.
