[rippem 455]

these things start when the dogs get board then they get so bad they cant stop chewing. bitch i had some years ago started to do it and an old greyhound boy gave me some black tar ointment they use for horses hoofs dont the trick not sure what it was called

 

Probably Stockholm Tar.

According to the old school it cures everything, from bad bites to leprosy.

that mite be the stuff.

worked for me

I don't know if it's a good thing or not but the ol' boys knew a trick or two.

One thing that the tar and oil did do was that it made enough of a barrier to stop fungal infections spreading and infections getting in.

 

But, they did also bury a lot of dogs that didn't need burying.

When I lived in Spain seen a lot of folk use diesel and burnt oil on dogs for skin complaints, mange, fleas, sand fly etc. They also used rags soaked in diesel to attract boar and painted tar and burnt oil on trees boar would rub their bodies on it

Years ago my old man had a dog in the vets for some reason.he had to leave it there it freaked out and ate it's tail clean off.and some of its foot ! Highly strung and stressed out they find weird ways to cope i suppose.

My advice is to have the dog pts and as a precaution have all of his offspring pts as you never know.

 

PS, make sure you post on here to tell us all about it to impress us.

This sounds like a similar problem that l seen with a terrier man a good friend that has keep terrier for over 40 years the dog would spin around after he's tail over a shot period eating it away this was not the first time for it to happen to him for veterinary advice and information he had on the breeding for the terrier line he keeps it was put down to birth
