Hi All,

Our Bully has to go in for minor surgery on Wednesday as it looks like she has an infection between her toes and the Vet believes there maybe a grass seed or ingrowing hair which is the cause of the problem.
Does anyone have any recommendations on how to stop her licking at her paw after the surgery? I understand she is going to be in a bandage for a few weeks which the wound heels and before the stitches come out and I am looking at the best way to stop her from licking and biting at this.

I have had a look at some of the neck collars and blowup doughnuts but most of them I think she will still be able to get at the front paw! The other option was a boot or sock, does anyone have any recommendations?

Here a little photo of her looking less than impressed when it was take your dog to work day!

I use vet wrap but lately got Duke baby socks anti grip. Not the ones you buy at the pet shop. Real baby socks size for a year old.
