[Dailydrool] da bump...da bump...da bum da bum da bump...

Boy ol Boy... Well, I guess the decision as to what to do about Sophie's
bump has been made for me.  Last night, she and her sister pup were
playing and alligator mouthing each other as usual, and somehow they
burst the bump!  Sophie didn't even notice it, or if she did, she surely
hid it well!  She comes trotting up to tell me hello and I gasped when I
saw the line of bright red blood coming from the bump and running down
her face.  Being the big wussy that I am, brave strong husband to the
rescue got her all cleaned up, examined the bump and got it sterilized
(as much as possible on a basset) and gobbed it with Neosporin.  I
called the vet this morning and she said that if it had stopped bleeding
(which it had) and she didn't seem to be in pain (which she doesn't), I
don't notice any abnormalities and it scabs up and goes away (which it
appears to be doing) there's no need to bring her in.  She just saw her
on Monday, so I trust that it's fresh in her mind.  I'm going to watch
it closely of course, but hopefully, the bump decided to get outta here
before I kicked him out!!!  Lol...

 

Thank you for all of your advice and for sharing your experiences.  I
really feel blessed to have such a wonderful wealth of knowledge and
experience to turn to.  Thanks again!!
