| help!! bacterial infection!! Heyy everyone. I was on this site a long time ago..bentleysmama?? not sure if anyone remembers. Anyway, quick question. Anyone's dealt with a re occurring bacteria infection on your dog? Bentley is a little over a yr old and has his 2nd case of an infection. The vet says there is nothing I can really go to prevent this, besides wash all his bedding..ect. She said they are very re occurring though. HElp! i don't know where this is coming from, and my baby is very itchy and irritated..not to mention the vet cost.

| Is it coming from a bite or allergies? Is he scratching himself and then the infection comes? I'm sure you'll find some help on here. Welcome Back!!

Donating YT 30K Club Member | My Pom has that but it is because she has Cushings Disease which is a diease older dogs get. They gave me panalog cream, like a dog neosporin to put on the sores. When they got real bad they put her on an oral antibiotic.
