Dr. Melanie, BVSc MS · Accepted Answer

Yes, the bleeding from the sore is likely due to her licking at it. You can get an Ecollar from the pet store or you can make one at home to keep her from licking at it. You can also cut a shirt to fit her that may cover the sores and prevent her from licking at them. http://dogsaholic.com/care/homemade-dog-cone.html
