I just got back from the vet, Tayolr has an apparent allergic reaction to flea bites.

I searched that girl all over and didn't find one flea or even flea dirt. SO the bumps I found I thought had to be from something else.
Well don't cha know I found a flea on her, while I was waiting for the Dr to come. AHAHAHH...

I guess it was flea bite afterall. Anyway, the information that I never heard before was, if your dog has a rash in the "underwear" area it is from flea's, even if you don't see them. They call it an Underwear rash because if a dog was to wear a pair of underwear that would be the area it would cover. A rash or bumbs anywhere else is from something else, like food or plants. Very Interesting huh?
