Hello,
So here is my question. I have a two year old smooth coated collie boy (my failed foster) who had his back right leg amputated. I noticed today that he has lost his hair on his front left elbow from standing up from a hitting position. It is very red. What can I put on it and what can I do to help this stop rhappenng and getting worse?

Aww poor pup. What's his name?
It sounds like a hygroma, which will only get worse and more difficult to heal if left untreated. Here are some Tripawd links that may help:

Thank you Jerry. I will order Dallas one. I have been cleaning it daily and he has a vet appointment Monday morning. I appreciate your help.
Dallas was my 68th foster who is now my last foster and a failed one at that. LOL. He is one of the 139 from the Tomball hoarder in Texas. I love him so very much
