Should I be worried about this patch? The puppy is 4 weeks old right now. None of her littermates have it, and the owner says the pup's father had it for a week as a puppy, and that it hasn't been back since. It's been tentatively diagnosed as something similar to Athlete's Foot, but I don't think that makes sense. I have a vet appointment lined up for the pup this week, but I wanted to ask all of you experienced Yorkie owners in the meantime. Is this something I should be concerned about?
FYI, I haven't purchased the puppy yet, but very much want to. She seems healthy aside from the patch (good appetite, outgoing, etc). The parents are healthy and don't have any "patch" issues. I heard that it could be a stress-related, hereditary condition, which makes me nervous.
Any advice can you offer will be much appreciated!
