JJ has had sore hocks from a very young age, about 6 months. So I knew it was going to be a life long problem as he is a Rex and if sore hocks occurs in Rexes before the age of 1 they rarely fully resolve.
Unlike Lady Lydia JJ will NOT keep any form of dressing on his hocks, which makes managing the problem even harder. Today his left hock broke open and blood literally gushed out. It took ages for me to stop it. I was on the verge of hitting the panic button ( calling our Vet…….again) when the bleeding finally stopped. I have managed to put a dressing on the hock and he has had his meds. Now I am sitting watching as he works hard to get the dressing off.
I am at a loss as to what to do
