hello i recently got a female red nosed pit and she would get abused and she has a cut on the top of her back i dont know if they cut her or if its a rash but its not very big..is there anything you can recommend i put on it?

Without seeing it or knowing what caused it, it's impossible to say. Take her to a vet.

Agreed, cuts and rashes require different treatments. If you recently rescued her, she's probably due for some preventative veterinary care anyway, I'd recommend setting up a visit with your veterinarian.

Where I live the vet is real expensive……I've been putting neosporin on it after I take her baths..how can i post a picture? So you guys can see what I mean?

For pictures use Photobucket from a computer, or you can download Tapatalk to your smartphone and upload from your phone. I prefer Tapatalk, as it sizes the pics for you.

There aren't any other vets near you? You really need to have a check-up done, probably shots, vaccinations, etc.

That doesn't look like a rash to me. Looks like some sort of cut/gash that's infected and needs antibiotics. I would be at the vet ASAP if it were my dog, rescue, or foster.

I agree. That's not something that should be treated at home. Vet visit!

Oh, well, in that case it's fine.

No, it needs to be seen as does the pup. While it's lovely of you to rescue this pup, you aren't really doing her any favors if you can't afford basic vet care.

Actually I am I found a real good cheap vet about 10 miles from where I live and ever since I been putting neosporin her cut on her back has gotten better

Hi, can you tell us a little more about yourself, so you can be given access? There's a sample intro sticky in this forum.
