I never knew yorkies can get black heads. My 5 year old Lexus has a perfect coat and skin, however recently my 4 year old Yorkie Cedes has developed black heads on her back and a cluster closer to her tail. My Vet said they were black heads and gave me a shampoo with Benzol Peroxide in it, but it doesn't seem to help. Does anyone else have a cure for them? They don't seem to bother her, more so me, when i pet her i can feel the lumps, then they scab and then the scabs get stuck in her hair!

thanks in advance for your help!
