i was gettin ready to go to bed and she was already under the covers when all of a sudden she started kicking her leg.so i get up and watched her and she started running around kinda hyper but then she would stop and start lickin it and everytime she would stop, she would start back kicking it again. idk if somthin may have bit her in bed, but i took the covers off and saw a little black ant, but i didnt think they could bite, its just the little tiny black ants. she cant sit still, i know she's miserable and the vet dont open untill 5 and a half hours :/, she was fine when i brought her in from using the bathroom an hour earlier. ive washed her foot off and checked it over good, and i didnt see any marks or swelling, or fleas, i just dunno what to do for her, what do you guys think?
 
You can put calamine lotion on her paw, and
that will stop the itching. Then take a childrens
sock, put it on her paw, carefully use first aid tape
to secure the sock to her paw, then fold down
the top to make it harder for her to chew the
tape off, lol. Just calming her will allow the
paw to self-heal, they heal really fast. Make sure
you don't tape the sock too tight, or you could
damage her ligaments on the back of her leg.
 
wash your dogs paw really well, and see if there's anything inbetween them.
if there is carfully take it out.
and just rub her paw and put somthing over it to stop her.
 
Well, it may have been the ants. You should probably just wash your dog and go over it with a flea comb a few times- completely clean your dog. That should help.
