--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have returned for the Vet, Our 3 year old yorkie started having problems with her hair after we sprayed her with flea and tick spray(don't want to say the name). She broke out in whelps, after a visit with our Vet, we shaved the areas and put antibiotic ointment on. She got alittle better but never cleared up. Now her back is red, with bumps that look like pimples, and her hair is coming out. Our Vet advised us to use fish oil on her food. If not better we would try something else.
We have adopted a 5 year old from a rescue, who had spent her entire life in a cage having one littler after another. We noticed a week ago a red bump on her lip. Our vet gave her a shot of antibiotic, and we are to give her liquid antibiotics twice a day, if it's not better he will remove it. Just wanted to share these stories, and ask for advise. |
i would go to a dermatologist and get to the bottom of it - it could be a staph infection and the welts were canine hives which is an allergic reaction to something within an hour or 2 of coming in contact so the spray could have triggered this then itching could have broken skin thus causing staph infection
can you post a pic?
