PS: Do NOT Google 'dog cysts' either. |
Loll & please don't post any pics of it either!
I think you're talking about Seborrhea? It's almost always associated w/ dry flakey skin sometimes oily greasy skin & the oil ducts can produce a fowl smell & can get plugged which can become folliculitis.
Dog Folliculitis Symptoms, Causes, and Treatments.
In mild folliculitis you typically will find many small pustules with a hair shaft protruding through the center of each. Dogs with mild cases may have rings of scales around the follicles.
Does Uni have flakey oily skin? If not, maybe this isn't it & I need to stop googling loll.
