YorkieTalk Newbie! | my baby has irritation around eyes and nose My 16 week old puppy has some light pinkish on the side of the nose and her eyes appear to be irritated around the outside like little bumps. I'm afraid it's something terrible. Has this happened to anyone. |

YorkieTalk Newbie! | She eats Eukanuba mixed with triumph chicken & veal soft food. I switched her water to bottled water. I read somewhere that tap water may also cause irritation. I've scheduled an appointment with the vet. |

YorkieTalk Newbie! | I took her to the vet they said it could be the start of Mange. They gave her a shot and a dip. I took her yesterday for another dip. Now I'm really concerned. I'm not convinced it was mange, she had no hair loss or anything wrong on her body. Her eyes are still irritated even after putting the medication on her eyes. The vet told me if it continues he will give her something for allergies. I'm thinking of going to another vet. |

| They could find out if its mange by doing a simple skin scrape. I wouldnt put them through dips for a guess
