Dog with black spot on tongue
4 months ago our dog (9mo female neutered Siberian Husky) chewed through and extension cord and we took her to the vet. She had a tooth pulled because of this and a huge section of the side of her tongue fell off, she was on antibiotics and everything seemed to heal 100% according to the vet. About 3 weeks ago she was spayed and a week after the surgery she's developed a small black dot that it right on the inside of the chip in her tongue, exactly where the previous injury was. It seems to have gotten larger in the past 2 weeks and it seems like it must be related to the original injury because it's exactly on the healed part of her tongue. Her behavior and eating habits are normal, and it doesnt seem to hurt when we press on it. Please let us know what this may be a sign of. |

Dog limping after jumping on owner
About a week ago when I came home from work I let my dog (2yo female neutered German Shepherd) Sophie out of her kennel and she jumped up on me(as she always does)to greet me and her right foot was caught in my sweater for just a few seconds. Later on in the day I noticed she was favoring that foot or leg. She doesn't whine or yelp like she has pain, but she has been limping for a week now. What could she have done to her leg? A sprain maybe? I touch up and down from shoulder to foot and it doesn't seem to bother her. Please help me. She wants to play with my other German Shepherd and I don't know what to do or what is wrong.Thanks for your time.
