    My 12 month old Lab has got a dark sore like circle on the knuckle of her front leg which at first looked like a paint or dirty mark but it has now become sore to touch and she has developed lameness in the leg. She is at the vets Monday.Anyone heard anything like this before

    Hi and welcome to the forum. Not heard of anything like your girl's symptoms. Hope all goes well at the vets tomorrow and please let us know how you get on. If she is lame on that leg I would keep,her on light exercise to keep her as comfortable as possible.

    Hello, and a very warm welcome.

    No, sorry, never seen anything like that before. Hope the vet can put her right.

    Has she been bitten by anything? Inflamed tick bite maybe?
