Chronic Non-healing Stump Granuloma on a Dockted Tail of a Doberman Pinture

One-year-old Female Neutered Doberman Pincher weighing 32kg presented with a chronic non-healing wound on her tail stump that had an improper tail docking at Day two by the breeder. The owner reported that the dog had the wound all along and that she hoped it would heal with time. Many types of treatment and different wound management modalities were tried since the dog was eight weeks old at the time of her first vaccination. For the past year the wound had intermittent severities and never healed completely. The other dogs at home had a habit of licking the tail and the dog had occasional acute episodes of pain that results in severe biting and licking at the stump.
