about to bring a pup to the vet, he has swollen liquid filled spots on his jionts (1 front leg and both back legs and 1 on his rear, hip jiont) has anyone had this on their pups or dogs. I was going to drain them myself and get some antibiotics but the vet asked me to bring him in.
now the twist a pup i sold and has been gone for a while is also having these show up so it isn't anything at my house, I'm thinking it is in their blood.

could be genetic or exposure to something or some type of thing that is similar in both places.

I have 4 other pups (pit/cat) in with that one (cat) they have a different mother but the same dad (I think) she is a HO, i tried to keep her contained but she got out one day while I was at work. I'm thinking she bred with another dog down the road.

got back from the vet....the pup has HYGROMA caused from irritating the joints and they get swollen with fluid, vet said most dogs grow out of it. It doesn't hurt them at all or cause them to slow down....he said city folk have him do surgery because it doesn't look good but if they wait it should go away..he said he can drain it if i want him to but no real need.....just to let you guys know in case y'all have any show up.....
