Please Note - Medical Advice
Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.
We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.
Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.
What can you get to prevent saw hocks??

Sorry but wouldn't it be better to ask this sort of question when you actually have rabbits. If you go to search and type sore hocks you will find lots of threads about this subject.

Sore hocks I believe are most common in rexes, even though some mini lops have them.. Sarah Jane's PB has them
So a soft bedding, ground to walk in should be supplied.
Imagine having a huge sore blister on the bottom of your foot and being made to walk on stones. Not nice at all.

If you don't want the bunnies to run on concrete, you can use thick rubber stable mats or hay to make it softer for them.

thank you x
xI had a rex with bad hocks. they would bleed if she went on anything rough etc. Need to be kept on soft bedding or rubber mats as suggested above.
I thought you already had rabbits though - could have sworn I came across a post somewhere yesterday where you said you had them (is now thinking i'm going doolally...:?)
