Bloody tail can also be a sign of whipworms sometimes.

Check out the tail. Is it chewed on or splitting on the ends or what is causing the bleeding??

The bleeding tails usually come from a dog waging his tail hard and hitting it on the kennel and knocking a hole in the end of the tail bone. Put him on a chain untill it heals up.

find someone that has a castrating banding tool used for calves, goats,sheep, etc & place a band on his tail at any length you want his tail to be( use the smallest band that will stretch over the tail with the tool). the docked part will fall off in a week or so with no ill effects. you can remove an inch or the whole tail, what ever length you prefer.

Dog likely just hit it on something. Could just put it on a chain till it heals if it is hitting it in the pen (like silverton said). No big deal, happens all the time.

Had the same thing happen to one of my pits. Put some furazone on it wrap it with vet wrap secure with tape, and it should be good in a few days.

Hey there, this Tonya, Justin's wife. (from Diboll) We have a dog that does the same thing but its on his ears. Very common and I ask a vet what might be the cause and he said that sometime the nerve endings in the ear and tail gets damaged...like the other guys posted... from being in dog boxes or kennels. Our dogs ears bleed everytime we put him in the dog box but stops after being put in his kennel for a couple of days. Unless you cut his tail off, there is no cure. The dr. said once the nerve ending are torn, they will not repair and everytime they get beat around...they are going to bleed. So, I wouldnt worry about it. He i in no great danger. Im not a vet...just going by what I was told by a vet. Hope this was helpful! take care and hope all is well. Tonta  |
