Hello bulldog land!
Yesterday morning something very weird and awkward happened.
When Opie first woke up he kept trying to itch his back end so I cleaned his tail and figured that would help him out...but to no avail. Than I noticed something horrific. His..ummm lets call it rocket. His rocket was hanging out, not fully, but a good bit of the tip. It wasn't normal at all though. His rocket was dark red almost purple and HUGE! It was so swollen. I instantly freaked out and had my fiance grab Opie so I could get a better look. We sat him up to a better position...ya know the position where the rocket just flops out? But it didn't flop out so I pushed his skin back (it was very tight and not easy to push) and the rest of his rocket was very blue, crazy blue! But almost instantly the color started to return and the swelling went away. It all went away so fast and than it was like nothing happened.
Is it normal for the skin to cut off circulation like that?
Please tell me I am not the only one with a bulldog that has happened too?
