yorkie skin issue First let me say I am taking him to the vet, they are closed today.
My yorkie has some redness, scaby, dandruffy (okay did I just make that word up?!?!), something going on on his abdomen/underside. It has beenn there for a while, but I have not taken him to the vet because it sometimes appears to be "dry out" and disappear. I googgled dog skin conditions and I am guessing maybe folliculitis?? I dont know however I dont think it is mange or yeast. I was thinking of just putting some neosporin or anti bacterial ointment on him until we get him to the vet this week. He does not scratch it, but I have stopped him from licking it a few times.
Any ideas or suggestions. I know if I put any cream on I cant let him lick it off. Not sure what it could it be?? Should I just take him to the vet or the vet dermatologist (I didnt know they had a dermatologist for dogs! However it makes sense). He doesnt have any other symptoms. He's playing and eating like normal.
Thanks!
