However it wont stop scratching! he scratches on his sides, chin, and the back. recently i found these red dots, its like pimples if i refer to, on his side where he scratches alot. i am really worried and dont know what to do
any suggestions?
sounds like staph infection did they do a cytology to check for bacteria? I would get your dog to a dermatologist asap save your money as sounds like your dog has allergies as allergies start at age 6 mos to 3 years and dermatologists know way more about skin issues than vets
