When I asked the vet what she thought caused this she told me it was very possible that bacteria from the pad (inside band) could have caused this.No more belly bands for our little man.
Well it needs to stay clean. I don't use belly bands but ppl I know who do use fem products or special pads and change them often. And wipe him down. Doesn't take much time vs marking
