Wards or fungus Hi everyone, this week-end I was grooming Logan and I noticed some king of fungus/wards on his lips (yearch) :eek: I was wondering if anyone has seen this on their yorkies... I have an appointment at the vet next week. It doesn't seem to bug him it might be a bit ichy because he scraches a bit on his mouth and lick his lips after, it is weird, it gray, he has about 5 of them. I know he chew raw hides all night long... I really don't know... I cannot wait to go to the vet! I just hope it is not painful or contagious (I have 2 other dogs). I will try to post a picture tonight. Am I the only one who seen these?:confused: |
Hmmm...hard to say without a pic, but it could be pimples too. They can get them around their mouth/chin. Do they seem to be in stages where some are dried up and others have a whitehead or? Try not to worry, it may be nothing - and it's great you have an appointment set up. :) |
Hi, no they are not pimples... they really look like some kind of mushroom... they are gray and one of them (the biggest one) seems to be hairy... you know with little things coming out of it yearch kind of look like penicillin under a microscope... anyway I will try to put a pic... Poor little thing.... thank God he has long hair :) |
Wylie actually had one like that - right on his lower lip, totally forgot about it! It actually kind of freaked me out too. Vet said it was either just a little harmless wart or a little cyst - to watch it for a few weeks and see it got bigger or smaller. Sure enough, it went away on its own. :) |
1 Attachment(s) Hi here is the pic.... I tried my best:cool: |
That's what Wylie's looked like! Grey, bulbous - but it was in front - on the lower lip. It did go down after about 3 weeks. I don't recall the vet gave us anything for it, just told us to watch it. He said it just happens sometimes and that if it gets larger or doesn't shrink - then they have to remove it surgically - but oftentimes, it just goes down on its own over time. :) |
Thank you :D I feel a bit better - anyway Logan will have to go to the vet because I want him to get the kennel coughed vaccine... he loves the dog park and with that many dogs around I don't want to take any chances!:p |
Well my husband Randy went to the vet. yesterday afternoon and Logan has a virus (apparently common in young dog) and it will go away :D I don't know the name of this virus because when he told me it was "virus.... blablabla":yelrotflm not contagious for my other dogs! |
