Urine Scald

An irritated red or raw area appears under the animal's tail from strong urine. Sometimes it seems to occur from the high calcium content of alfalfa hay. Just applying a coat of Vaseline, Desitin, or Bag Balm (for cattle udders) should clear it up. If severe, perhaps the diet should be adjusted.
