I just went an picked up my female that was at a friends house for 6 months to be breed to his male. He told me on two occasion he would bring her back because she didn't come in heat. Today I decided not to go to work and go see him. She a little skinny for me. Never had a dog with a open sore in that spot . What's the best way to get it healed and what is best to use to re gro her hair? Thanks
She probably needs a bath first. Then you can use Chlorhehadine diluted with water, or Vetricyn spray (Pink Eye formula is best because it's the strongest) daily.
When it dries up cover with Nu-Stock or Wound Cote, or whatever topical you like. Sounds like either a hot spot or bed sore from being thin and in housing without bedding.
A good diet always helps also.

Thanks S_B I gave her a bath and feed her when I got home. I also cleaned it with Chlorhexidine solution I had. I will get some wound-Kote today. I never had good luck with Nu- Stock.
