What to do about rash under my dogs front legs from wearing a t shirt?

My dog has a rash under her front legs were she wore a t shirt all day, sounds weird but the shirt was wet and I guess rubbed her skin a little raw. She wont stop licking the spots and now they seem to have gotten worse. They almost look like blisters now and they are on both of her upper legs were the shirt was rubbing on her.What treatments should I provide to her?

Try using Aloe Vera or an Oatmeal Shampoo to relieve the itching associated with your dog's rash. Also, Benadryl can be administered at a dose of 1 mg per pound of body weight twice daily. Be aware that Benadryl can have either a sleepy side effect or restless side effect. Of course, if the rash does not heal within a few days, a visit to the vet is in order. Best of luck! Ali

A prickly rash can be intensely irritating for your dog but it should be resolved in a few days if it is permitted to heal (without further trauma from your dog's attempts to relieve the itch). Keep your dog in a cool indoor location while the rash is being treated. Large pet supply stores, such as Petco, carry hydrocortisone creams and sprays which may be quite helpful for this particular type of rash. There will also be inexpensive E-collars, if needed, to prevent your dog from disturbing the area as it heals.I hope she will experience some relief soon. -PetCaretaker
