My dog han an injury on her leg(back knee)?


my doh got loose last night and she came home limping.i cheched her leg and there was a small hole type gash thing.i cut away the fur around it and i cleaned it and put antibiotic ointment o it and kept it clean all night. im just not sure what made the hole.its small but its big enough that you can tell its there.i bled pretty much all night and its really sore for her today.
she was chasing a rabbit so i thought it was a rabbit bite but its only one hole not 2. so i thought it mightve been a thorn of somesort but there arnt really any thorns by were we live. so then my sister thoughtit mightve been a bebe gun shot.im not asure but if it was i think she woudve been limping a lot more than she was. \
waht do you think it is?

she has a vet appt. at 2.00 today

That's sad to hear. I would reccomend you take your dog to the vet so he can treat it better. As to what it could be there are numerous things that could have happened to the dog. The vet might be able to clarify it better. But to make sure that your dog didn't get any diseases from that wound whether it was from anohter pet or not, it would be best for you to check it out with the vet. Better be safe than sorry.

i think it could be a beebee gun wound or it could have been a branch that stabbed her i think u should take her to a vet and see what they have to say.
