stains on fur.

[liza22]

My golden retriever has some stains on her front legs caused through licking, has anyone got any tips on removing them, they are quiet pink the patches. I thought about diluting some lemon juice, any thoughts?

I would take her to the vets, it could be an allergy or she could be doing it out of boredom, maybe that sounds a bit mad, but labradors and retrievers, do get bored pretty easily and some resort to licking. good luck Ray

our golden retreiver used to do this, try otodex cream from pet shops, it soon clears it up, and it helps to wrap a it of bandage around the sore spots until it clears up. Or go to vet!

Removing the cause of the licking may help. If it continues your Golden may get something called acral lick dermatitis/lick granuloma. As raysparx1 says, it could be down to itchiness or a behaviour due to boredom or pain.
