   Is she chewing on it?  Is it possible that she's banging it against items   
   such as furniture or her kennel?  Have you tried keeping it bandaged to   
   avoid more trauma to it?  If it's not healing there has to be something   
   irritating it or infection going on.  Since you're doing antibiotics I'd   
   lean more toward daily irritation that is keeping it from healing.
