Sheldon has a dime size red spot on the inner side of back leg. :confused: What could it be???? It is flat and even color. It looks like this one here http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n...nesbugbite.jpg Thanks for looking! |

You just had to be careful they don't turn to staph... then they need antibiotics to get rid of.... |
Thank you so much! That was my fear. Do you think he should be ok waiting til Monday to go to vet? It doesn't seem to bother him. |

I took Max to the vet twice last summer for these spots. The vet gave us antibiotics and it cleared it up, but I don't Max on antibiotics several times a year. |
Organic coconut oil checked! So could this be food allergies too? Thank you so much for the quick response ladies! |

Do you have any coconut oil you can rub on the area. I use the same coconut oil as MAXIMO. It is the Nutiva organic coconut oil. I don't know what area you are in, but they sell it at the GNC where I am. https://store.nutiva.com/coconut-oil/ |

Also, try to keep his underside dry. If you are cleaning down there, make sure to dry well. |
I have coconut oil but is not organic. I can go to GNC and get some. The area where the spot is won't get wet at all. It is on his leg by his knee. |
Use the coconut oil and keep an eye on it. If it looks raised, more like a bump, make sure it isn't a tiny tick. A tick would make a good size bump though. |

Those are usually from something they are walking over.... Probably grass.... I roll Riley over and check him morning and night. |
Something just pop in my mind, I gave him his heartwrorm medicine. He is on interceptor now and this is the 1st time taking it. Could this be related? |
