Sounds a silly question I know but how does a rear leg amputee scratch anything mid body and up? Butch hasn't scratched himself since his op 32 days ago and he used to love a long behind the ear scratch with either one of his rear legs. He still won't lie on the op side so he hasn't scratched with the good leg either. We keep 2 dog brushes near his bed, one for the undercoat and another a massage type brush which we use a few times a day just in case he has an itch. Anyone else wondered this or am I just being a mummy..?

Debbie started a discussion about rear-leg dog amputees scratching in the thread Tucker started. But hey, that's what our people comapnions are for!
PS: There are no silly quesitons here.
