Dog’s cast causing skin problems?
pr3ciousgurlie972 asked:
I have a little Pomeranian that broke his leg around 4 1/2 weeks ago. It hasn’t fully healed yet and my vet told me he might take another 4-6 weeks to fully recover. At first I was concern because when I went to the ER the first night the vet there told me to get his cast change every week or two, while my regular vet told me that he will be fine with the same cast on until his leg is healed. Does anyone know who is right? Also, I am worried cause I started to notice him licking and chewing on his cast lately. So, today I took a look at the top part of his leg and his skin seemed to be dry and with red spots. Should he get his cast change to avoid any bacteria or any skin problems? They never prescribe me with any antibiotics to prevent any infections, because they told me he wouldn’t need it. Can someone please help me with my concerns.

Bull terrier and skin problems?
itsme asked:
Well I have a white Bull Terrier pup and recently I found out they are prone to skin problems. My puppy is loosing hair in little spots all over his body. I am taking him to the vet tomorrow for a skin scraping to rule out mange, although I know it’s not mange.Because my other dog shows no symptoms.And puppy has bumps it comes with it so I’m pretty sure its an skin allergy.
So does anyone else have a Bull Terrier and have the same problems. And if so what was the treatment and is it expensive.
Any info would help-thanks
so I should change his diet. what is a good dog food that doesn’t have all that stuff in it.

How can I help my dog stop chewing on his skin and pulling out his hair?
Jane asked:
My dog of 12 years is my baby and I love him. I have taken him to the vet and had him checked for many different things. He has no fleas and the doctors say he just has skin problems.

I have tried oatmeal baths, lotions for dogs, even that expensive hot spot spray, to no avail nothing is working and he is a mess. He is going bald near his rear and the vet says it may be something he will have to live with.
Please help!

Question regarding skin problems with puppies. ?
Catherine C asked:
We’ve tried every kind of shampoo and even conditioner, but my 5 month old puppy still has flakes, itches a lot, and even has a rash next to his private area. The Doctor says its just allergies, so he said to give him a baby Benadryl. That still didn’t work and his skin is just as bad. What could it be? I don’t really trust what the vet has to say.

What can I do to treat my American Bulldog’s Skin Problem?
vampyr asked:
Our family’s American Bulldog (Marcus) is only a yer-old but he’s been suffering a skin problem. The problem presents itself as over-all redness on his body with bumps and his skin easily tears and bleeds. At first, the Vet said he was allergic to his foods or it might be mange. He;s been treated with antibiotics, vitamins, skin ointments and anti-mange injections. But still he hasnt gotten better and it only seems to get worse. What else can I do?

Skin problems with a 5 year old Chocolate Lab. ?
Natalie asked:
I rescued a chocolate lab and when we got her from the rescue agent she had a small scab on her left ear(right at the end). It is a scab and will fall off and then be bright red again and start the whole process over again. It is now getting bigger and is on the right ear as well. What could cause this? We have tried a couple of antibiotics but nothing is clearing it up. She also has what appear to be bright red zits/pimples on her nose. If anyone has any answers/solutions to these skin problems I would really appreciate it.
We did take her to a vet and they said they have never seen anything like this before and gave her some medicine that does not seem to be helping.
