Vizsla/ Weimaraner Chocolate Lab Mix's question about Sebaceous Adenitis

Question

I'm trying to find something that is house hold to help my dog with his skin condition until I am able to take him to a vet. Have you ever seen a human with psoriasis? Well that is what it looks like only it is on his thighs close to his genitals. I cant seem to get him not to lick it so im hoping someone can recommend something for now that is safe if he licks it while im not around. I believe its SA but I really dont know.

Accepted Answer

Sebaceous Adenitis is not a common disease, but bacterial or fungal infections, parasites and allergies are quite common.  Unfortunately, without knowing what is causing Otter's skin condition, I can't suggest anything to help it, as all of those things are treated quite differently.  It would be best to have him seen by a veterinarian as soon as you can, as they will be able to determine what the cause of his problem is and help him with his itching.
