Skin Blisters and Pustules in Dogs

Vinny has had this rash going on for a few weeks, it comes and goes. Now he has these 2 big pustules on his groin area and the whole shaft seems to be swollen. It doesn’t seem to bother him much. He sometimes licks excessively but not all the time. He has a greenish discharge coming from his penis that just started and he’s been quite smelly.

My 6 yrs old Morki (Maltese & Yorki mix) has just today developed 2 small blisters around the tip of his penis, I noticed when we was excessively licking. His vet can't see him until Sunday, today is Friday, not sure if it can wait or if I should take him to the vet hospital? Never seen anything like this. He seems calm now..

My 11 week old puppy has developed a puss filled blister right next to his gential. Is this harmful to him? He doesn't seem bothered by it and recently it started to drain.

"Little Guy" was dumped, found under our porch. Vet said at that time hecwas 3 months old. Today he is 7 months old about. Mixed breed, looks to be Italian grey hound, Pomeranian mix? Weights about 8 lbs. He has had issues with vomiting, food looks undigested, he's been on multiple meds for nausea, thriat soothing meds for like acid reflux, currently on amoxicillin. This pup has been through it all. We racked up an $800 bill already and still he's sick. He thrives for 3 weeks, then gets sick all over again. Back at square one. This is on going since March 30, 2017. He's on antibiotic now for pus pockets all over his abdomen and one on his back. We are at a loss. He's vomiting again and back to being sick along with these pus pockets that are bursting on his abdomen. We've been to 2 vets, a hospital clinic with still no answers. Almost 8 hours at pet hospital and was only told his sodium level was 137 on wed and 129 on sat. Many test, but no answers. At a loss and feeling defeated.

We adopted a Great Dane that was mostly outside. She has been with us 2 weeks now and been to the vet who didn't seem concerned. Daisy has bumps/ bites, possibly from flies, fleas, ants...No idea. They are everywhere, but the are healing for the most part. They are all along her spine up the back of her neck, bottom of her mouth, elbows, etc. Some possible scaring. Some still puss filled with a horrible rancid smell. They are not bothering her, when we get puss out we use peroxide, doesn't bubble. Any help appreciated. Thank you.

We recently bought the Easy walk harness and it irritated her skin on both of her arms. Her hair was starting to thin so we stopped using it to allow healing. (It wasnt fitted properly) its been about 2 weeks and now the area is developing dark lumps the size of pimples. Her hair is still thinning. Today 2 of them pussed a yellow liquid. What is this?

My 3 year old golden retriever had a grade 2 mast cell tumor removed from his Right leg, it healed up very well, but 5-6 weeks later had a bloody area on his other leg, that had blood blisters that kept opening up, his abdomen has what appears to be bruising. He has seen 7 vets no of which know what is going on. First thought was possible histamine release due to the mast cell. others feel it was a snake bite, not possible. All blood work is normal, ultrasound normal. Saw an oncologist- she has never seen this and said it is not cancer. Has been on doxycycline and was appearing to be doing better, end of antibiotics and within 2 days, became a large bloody mess with bloody pustules, leg is swollen and obviously painful. Doctors have no idea what this is. Will be trying to get in a dermatologist ASAp. Is this a histamine reaction? We started him last night on Benadryl 25 mg every 8 hours, but vet today said to increase to 50 mg 3x/day. Please help!!

yellow lab 8 yrs old female
bumps mole-like but bit of pus eventually breaks and is bloody
appear on forehead and jowls
she itches her face, back of front legs (by elbows) and jowls
she was on 2 rounds of antibx and prednisone (1st - 10 days, 2nd - I think it was 21 days??)
it went away but a week after the meds ended it started coming back, she's starting to itch again and has 1 mole/bump right now.
The bumps started one on each side (jowls)
Not sure what to do next.....have you ever seen this before?

My Sadi had flea issues and was biting around her backside raw. We got her confortis and now she has blisters filled with puss and blood and still hair loss in that area she also has thicker skin in some of that area when you press down puss seaps out of surrounding areas. What could this be?

Hi rosco Is a pitbull/boxer he is about 1 1/2 yes old and I noticed today a few small clusters of blister on his chin they dont seem to bother him amd he is as big as me so he wouldnt let me get a good look but it seemed as they were clear pus filled blisters and it appears to be clusters of 3 maybe 4 blisters, any idea as to what it may be??

My dog has some blisters on her, they appear to be filled with clear fluid.. she is itchy sometimes but not where the blisters are..

My female dachshund is "blue" and suffers from color dilution aloplecia. She is having a bad break out right now and she has small bumps all over her back from neck to butt. Is there anything that I can topical use for her. We have done anitibiotica, steriods, melatonin, none of which really works. Any suggestions beyond going to see a dermatologist?

My dog has what looks like a wound near her mouth and it looks like it's getting worse. I've been trying to keep it clean. She doesn't itch it or anything. But I did notice hair loss around the area that is infected or what not.

my puppy have a small brown patches on her tummy and it seems like its peeling off and he has a small pustule also on his tummy.

Does my poodle get infections from tick and flea prevention neem oil ? Or it may due to her throat inflammation pills? skin flaking and irritation gets well from anti fungal cream, but yellow pus grow on her leg corner after a morning i wipe the area with tissue dab of neem oil.

My 1 year old American Bulldog keeps getting theses blood filled bumps that break open when you scratch her. Huge areas her entire back is covered. Twice she has gotten skin infections that needed antibiotics. The first appearance were on her vulva but now they've pretty much gotten to every part of her except her stomach and face.

I just noticed some small bumps on the vulva of my 2.5 year old pit bull. She has been licking there a lot recently but it hasn't really seemed more than usual. There are two small bumps and they look like pimples to me. They have yellowish puss or something inside. I didn't try to squeeze them.

She recently started a second round of antibiotics due to infection from ACL ligament replacement. Would this antibiotic treat any potential infection that may be causing these blisters/pimples?

She has had a patch of bumps on her chin for about a month and one of them filled with what looks like pus

I'm not sure if it's the change in food? A new groomers I took her to ? Or allergies from something outside ?

My dog Dyna has always had a tendency to bite and scratch at herself whenever she has an itch and she just tends to make things worse by creating scratches. She's been itching a lot recently, but this time it's on her back (normally it's her neck and chest) and I noticed that her hair is thinning in that area. I was checking it out and the area has some pretty good sized bumps... they seem to be solid or clear.
I was checking for signs of fleas but don't see any... could this be some sort of skin allergy? The bumps have been there for several days now and don't seem to be getting better. She's very itchy.

My dog Lucy was stepped on by my husband when they were playing. The day after I noticed a bump, blister like on her rear paw ( the one she was stepped on) and it was reddish but she was not and is not limping. A week and a half has passed and I tried to monitor it; seemed to be getting better and I was seeing it drying up; however she occasionally starts licking it and it goes back to red and today in the morning she started licking it again and it released a little blood that stained the floor. Any advice as to what to do? I am starting to get worried and want her blister to heal.

My female Mastiff has several red bumps under her chin. They sometimes pop and start to bleed or have pus coming out of them. We have tried to use peroxide to clear it up but has not helped. We notice that she rubs her face across her bed very often. Also her chin area usually is moist. What could this be?

My dog has a quarter size raised bump on the outside of her leg. At first I thought it was a mosquito bite but I looked closer and noticed the skin was red and looked like a wound. I brushed it and the fur came right out. I squeezed it and a little blood came out. Felt like a cist or ingrown hair? I wish I could post a picture

I have a 3 year old great dane. She was bred harlequin to harlequin and is all white with few black spots on her face. I know double dominant great danes suffer from skin problems along with other things. 4 out of 13 liter mates were born blind or deaf, 2 have seizure disorders. When she was a pup she had pyoderma and demodectic mange passed from mom. The mange caused small pustules that rarely broke open but when they did they smelled of metal. The vet told me she would outgrow it after her first year. Now she has pencil eraser sized, small brownish red (dried blood), scaley/dry concave/shallow lesions all over her back and sides. The are slightly raised and can be seen as bumps because some slightly disturb her thin white fur. More and more appear weekly. She has a pink body so it is very easy to see her skin. If she wasn't white I doubt we would notice these abnormalities. She is loosing a lot of fur and sheds constantly. She also smells AWFUL after about a week of not bathing her. New vet is clueless & wants me to do a biopsy, allergy testing ect. I can't afford it. At 1.5 years she was still positive for demodex after conducting microscopic skin scrapings by my old, more expensive vet. I thought her skin issue was still a result of an ongoing demodex problem. New vet stated that dogs dont suufer from that type of mange after they are puppies. She was treated with Ivermectin orally and it never helped the mange so I just figured it would heal itself. Any idea what could be going on? She developed a large boil at her belly/side hair line that exploded a white cheesy and bloody substance. I feel it was related to her skin problem. The boil continues to fill with blood after about a week of lying flat and deflated, is the size of a nickle and when I press on it after it refills, it exudes blood only. She had a healthy TSH, and blood tests in September 2016. Her ears are clean and she is otherwise remarkable. What could this be? what skin diseases or issues do white great danes suffer from?

I found one lump/blister on Oz's low spine a few weeks ago. He now has another spot on his low back, hair loss, itching and excessive sneezing. Please help he's my best friend and therapy dog. He seems to still be eating well.

About three months ago my dog had fleas so we treated him with frontline. The problem kept persisting so about a month and a half later we treated him again and used several organic home remedy sprays on the home and yard to get rid of the fleas. Well we have been rid of the fleas for a few weeks now and he still continues to go through these spouts if being extremely uncomfortable. He seems to be having some sort of allergic reaction as he will break out in a rash and small swollen bumps in his groin area. The bumps sort of seem internal and hard. There is also some dark discoloration on the base of his penis. We have given him Benadryl a few times when he seemed extremely uncomfortable and upset. this helped within the hour and the redness and bumps would go away. However, over these past few weeks or so the hives flare up. Any insight you have would be very helpful.

Our 13 wk old dobi has little bumps all over his body. They don't seem to itch as much as I would have thought, but do seem to be spreading. At 7 wks our vet thought he might have puppy cellulitis and treated him with steroids and antibiotics. The bumps returned, so another round of antibiotics but this time nothing was mentioned about the cellulitis. We have a additonal puppy that is 9 wks older and the two of them play non stop of course chewing on each other from time to time. The vet thought it might be from the chewing or biting. It's been 2 wks since the antibiotics and the bumps are back in full force. They are not open sores and are small in nature. They did scrape him for mites and that came back negative. He has been wormed, had flea treatments, on blue buffalo dog food and had oatmeal baths. He plays, eats and acts fine. Please help!

My 13 yr. old dacshound mix developed a round lump suddenly on top of his nose yesterday. Now today on the lump blister like sore have developed and are erupting. He also has a couple of the blisters on his snout just above his lip. They don't seem to bother him unless I try to touch them. I'm worried with his age it could be serious any ideas?

My 7 year old Pomeranian has painful blisters on his eyelids. This has caused swelling, and discharge. He has been to his vet twice and she gave him a pain killer and ointment. She also suggested warm compresses twice daily. He is very uncomfortable, panting and restless at night and I can't quite tell if his condition is improving. We have been doing this treatment for about 5 days now. Is there anything else we can do for him? At this point the vet said it doesn't appear to be bacterial and we are unsure of the cause. How long will it take him to get better? He can't take an anti inflammatory due to a liver condition.

My dog is an 8 year old labradoodle. Last September, he incurred a small cut on the front of his rear leg. Within a few days it swelled up and began to ooze a clear, bloody fluid because he kept licking at it. Went to vet, got cephalexin and swelling went down. Before it fully healed, he got into it again and licked it until it swelled back up. This time he was given a cortisone shot w/ cephalexin. After this, it healed quickly but then small blood blisters would start coming up. When they popped, he would lick them, thru would pop, and the swelling would return...again. Since this time, it seems like the blood blisters will not stop coming up, so as you can imagine his leg will not completely heal. The most recent time, vet prescribed short term oral prednisone instead of cortisone, to which the swelling is staying down. However, these small blood blisters continue to pop up. Also, it feels like there's a deflated cyst under the skin when I massage/touch this area of his leg, but it doesn't seem to bother him. Our vet noted that if this continues he may need surgery. My question is: what is causing these blood blisters? When we are not home we put an e-collar on him, and we watch him closely when we are home to make sure he's not licking/irritating it. Could walking him occasionally aggravate this? We are at our wits end here.

My dog often times gets these bumps around her lips, chin, and nose are that are filled with yellow puss, and blood, and occasionally some form a small head. They don't seem to bother her unless i try to look at them and get the puss out. They do swell pretty large though, and they come and go.

My dog Vincent is having these red bumps pop up on him they are hard and about the size of a pencil eraser. Hecurrently has 4 . They don't seem to bother him but they are scabby and smell like iron when scab is removed but no blood. No pus or anything comes out just. Clear and they take about a week to heal

My dog, Carlie, has been suffering with itching, scabs, repeated skin infections, and blister like appearances on her belly, around her vulva, on her lips, in her paws, in her armpits, and sometimes in a few other areas under her fur on her torso. It started a little over a year ago, and she's done at least four rounds of antibiotics for skin (yeast) infections. She's also been given antibacterial wipes for treatment of the specific areas, as well as several different allergy medications, one round of steroids, and a change in diet. We switched her food, got rid of most types of additional treats, replaced with green beans, and have been recommended allergy shots tailored to her. Each "breakout" cycle begins with red areas and pustules forming on her skin, which eventually become scabs that get infected no matter what we do. She seems lethargic during the "breakout" and gets more energetic while on antibiotics, but the cycle always repeats. She has tried three different allergy meds, but none of them keep the problem away. Any advice to help her would be appreciated.

I have a three year old Yorkie Poo, that has one pustule between his hind left leg and genital. It is right beneath the joint on the smooth under belly. I've seen him licking it, but not prolonged licking. This just developed in the last couple days.

she has bumps on her torso and on the insides of her front legs. They seem to be hard bumps with a smaller bumps filled with clear stuff. They don't seem to itch. But I'd like to know what this is. Also she hasn't had her shots.

my 8 year old boxer / pit mix has had skin irritation since a puppy however it has worsened as he has aged. It does not itch! they are these raw sometimes pus /blood filled lesions all over sides , inner thigh and groin area. He also has areas on upper side and outside thigh that are black calluses. The vets have guessed they might be keloids from past skin infections. He has been to 3 vets and none of them knows what it is. He is eats hills prescription diet derm defence and when on steroids and antibiotics his skin improves. The second he stops medication it flares up again. I know he can't be on the medication forever and it has already been 4 months. I notice when his skin is flared he acts older and depressed. When on meds and skin is improved he acts like a 1 year old (so happy)! He has been tested for allergies and mites. He loves to lay out in sun but that makes his skin worse so we try not to let him out as much. My first guess was he had a sun allergy but the vet just nodded and dismissed that hunch. I notice when I give him his rx antifungus shampoo that (which I am supposed to do weekly but usually give every other week) these very light brown specks come through his fur and at first I thought it might be dry skin. The more I lather the more that appear. I have worked in pet rescue and doggy daycare and have bathed many types of dogs and I have never seen anything like it. It is not flea dirt so dry skin would seem logical however he does not itch...... ever. He is such a good boy and I feel so bad that we can't fix this. I am hoping someone out there will have seen this before and be able to tell me what it is and what I can do to fix it.
Thank you in advance,
Danielle and Harley

Thr other day i noticed a blister on my 8 year old male pitbull, admiral. It is near his penis. He doesn't seem to be in pain, and I've been. Trying to keep him from liking it. But now today, I noticed another one, in the same general area. They almost look like blisters that have poped. And the one has has some yellow puss around it. He isn't in pain, and is eating and playing regularly. What should I do?

I woke up this morning and saw my pit bull Tank pawing at his nose and licking his paw after to me it looks a little like a burn but nothing could have burnt him. It's a red and wet looking and almost a perfect circle just above his left nostril. I was concerned about it being a spider bite or scorpion bite he will kill any bug he sees I'm not sure how long it would take to show but last night he was fine and he sleeps in my bed he might get up during the night or in the morning and come back to bed. He has never had this kind of "wound" before if you have any suggestions on how to clean it etc. thank you.

Ok so my friends dog Jake has these red blistery patches that just randomly appeared I noticed some blood I his nose and thought nothing of it and we went on about our business. my pitbull was a us and is bit showing any signs of Jake's. Jake is usually a very active dog now he is laying around as if hes in pain. I dont know what he might have gotten into while we were out on a potty break because he wasnt on a leash. They formed over a two day period. We were wondering wha

I own a samoyed dog...it started having sores all over its body, loss of appetite and loss of weight. The sores are becoming worse and it only itches when I bath her. She has also been staying under the sun recently and it gets me worried. The sores are also very irritating and obvious when I bath her. Please what can I do or use?

I have two pit bull puppies they are 6-7 weeks old they just develop yellow pus bumps under their belly they had their 9 in one's but I was wondering what is the cause cud it be from insect bites or what??

I have a 7.5 year old, white boxer. He has always been very active and hyper, but this last year I can tell he is getting old because he does sleep a lot more during the day. His appetite seems to be okay also, he still begs for food all the time! And we go through dog food the same as usual. About a year and a half ago a friend of ours recommended we get him a cone and some antibiotic ointment for his testicular area because of some small itchy spots that the dog wouldn't leave alone. We figured they may have started as a flea bite that he licked and itched until it got red and irritated. We got the cone and the ointment and it did improve. But after a week we noticed our dog was so upset about having the cone on her had tried to take it off himself and rubbed his neck raw in the process. It was very sad and I just gave up on the cone. Now he has some red sores on his testicular area that he licks constantly and are oozing clear fluid. I don't know what is causing it...if it's the constant licking due to boredom (us and the kids are out of the house all day) or something else. His dog bed does seem to have a strange odor and I have been having to wash it more frequently. Please help!

My toy poodle was on medication for her skin disease and everything was stable until i left for a business trip for 2 weeks. she stayed at home with my mum. The next day i left her tummy started to show red spots. i asked my vet they say she might be just sad emotional caused this. i came back and brought her to the vet and now she is having anti fungal medication. after 4 days consuming the medicine. i found out that the red spots actually turned yellow like a pimple some sort of thing. some its quite big. i asked the vet again he said its puppy pustules and it will dry and go off. But for now it looked very serious.

Our 1 1/2 yr old female French Bulldog Lucy has red rash and like yellowish pustules around her vulva. She rubs herself on our rug that seems to cause this & makes it worse as she itches. So we removed it. I'm keeping her very clean & sprayed pet cortizone spray on her. Is there more I can do? She's very uncomfortable. Thank you!

Both of my dogs, a pug and a border collie mix, are constantly itching and biting in no particular place on their bodies. They have 1 or two sores that weep. The pug had one on her chest, and the collie has two on the back of her neck. The sores smell strongly of metal, but do not bleed. The fluid is clear. They do not have fleas when I comb them. They have visited a dog park recently, however. We see the vet soon, so if it is ringworm I want to crate them and keep them contained when we go, so as not to be contagious.

My shih poo has yellow pus filled blistered all over her belly and Im not sure what to do? Should I take her to her vet? She had a couple of ticks a few days ago. However I safely removed them. Did she get an infection from the ticks? The blisters dont seem to bother her . She ocasionally licks them.

My pepper has what looks like a water blister on her head right beside her ear. We want to use a warm compress to open the blister and drain the fluid. It seems to be getting bigger. I wish i could send a picture.

German Shepherd has black blisters around base of groin they pop on their own and then more grow. He had surgery to remove scar tissue the vet said it would get better. He was on antibiotics and it got better for about the last week of 30 days of antibiotics. Dog had parvo when we found him on the street he is about 2 years old now. He did go under the house the other day he was afraid of the chainsaw could bad dirt do this the house was built in 1941, I had thought our previous dogs skin had turned somewhat a darker color in her thigh area and she used to go under the house. Or the heat? We are having a heat wave right now. What could this be?

i rescued my lab 3 months ago, somebody dropped him off on the side of a road ): he was doing well until about a month and a half ago , he has bumps all over his body and at first they are small them seem to grow with pus and blood after a night or two. any ideas ? :/ i have him on lamb and rice recipie food, and have been bathing him weekly to help with the smell . he also has an ear infection , can’t seem to get it to go away . i don’t really know if it’s due to the bumps or skin condition . i just want my pup to be happy ): he’s showing depression , he eats well still , but he is overall tired sleeping all the time . any advice or at home treatments i’m able to perform ?

Tiny white bumps on skin, not an infection however. They spread like warts to 30 or more. The bumps are hard, pure white like a pimple. Also, i notice a smell, oily in nature, not usual for a Cocker Spaniel and itching, but not like mites or scabies.

I have a pit mastiff and he is about to be 2yr old. He has patches of dry skin that flake off and some are bumps almost like pimple. When squeezed they release pus or clear liquid. I have taken him to the vet and they prescribed a medicated shampoo which worked great. Now the shampoo is finished and within a week or so the symptoms started to reappear. All this is under his fur. Its spreading everywhere and now he has one between this toes. The shampoo im currently using is called Douxo Chlorhexidine PS Shampoo. What should I do? Plus, my house is all carpet.

My three year old rescue (shepard/lab/hound maybe) has been developing clusters of Bullae that seem to have a crust or edge of some sort where it meets the skin. She first started getting them when she was almost a year old and has had them on and off for the past two years. They are non tender and localized from her chin to in between her two vertical jowels. She also has some sort of vesicular lesion on her hind legs below her back knees. These are not so much bullae as cyst like vesicles formations. Together seem to originate deeper in the dermis. All of which seem nontender and no itchy; sometimes the neck bullae will develop a red base. I have had two vets look at them and they just say how weird of a dermatitis it is. The first vet just shaved them all off when he was trying to remove the hair, because he didn't see them. The consistency of the clear liquid inside these bullae was super sticky, it made a foot long string from her neck to the glove. My initial thoughts were possibly back up of lymphatic fluid or something since it's on the neck and popliteal area. More recently I've been thinking maybe pemphigus foliaceus depositing antibody complexes could result in some sort of sticky exudate. What are your thoughts about possible etiology or diagnoses?
Thanks

My dog has a single sore on the outside of his left lip that I only noticed recently. It is small, round, split down the middle and has yellow crust over it. Perhaps related is that 3 weeks ago he had a left ear infection resulting in a red swollen ear with crusty yellow pus. I treated it with Mometamax for 7 day’s and it healed well. I’ve also been cleaning it daily with Epi-Otic solution which washes up a little brownish wax. This was his first ear infection ever. And now he has his first mouth sore. He eats “healthy” dry kibble by Rachel Ray. I give him a little of my food too (mostly chicken, eggs or beef). His appetite has increased lately but I haven’t observed behavioral changes otherwise.

What is this red partly yellow irritation that has festered into having 2 pimple like things on my dogs testicles? He had an extremely small amount of flees on him until this winter hit. I noticed his red patch when we came inside from walking outside in the 3 inch deep snow next to a patch of trees with another family dog who is a 1 year old poodle. The red patch on Teddy was first just very red were it looked as if he were bleeding and he was licking and biting at the area. The next day it grew to part of it being yellow almost pus like with the red and some bleeding, licking, and biting. Over the past 2 days he's been moody such as sad and scared with shaking and being distant from me, not wanting to play or be by me as much. If you try to touch the red area he gets extremely aggressive and bites. My dog has never bitten me so knowing his behavior I believe this to be very serious. He has not had his rabies shot. My dog is 10 pounds and I've tried to use anti-itch wipes but he doesn't allow me to touch the area.

My German Shepherd had a small lump on her head just above her eye, its been there a couple of weeks and slowly got a little bigger, I went to have a look last night and it popped as I was feeling it to make sure it wasn't getting bigger or harder. After it popped once I wiped it down with a tissue and pressed it again. It went from feeling like a ball pimple to a squashed skin between my fingers. More puss cam out and when I wiped again and did it again nothing came out. She didn't appear to be in any pain when doing this however the puss really smelt. The bump is still slightly there but I imagine it would do just like any spot but her coat isn't crusty or damaged and the hair is still around and on the spot. She has been drinking more water recently but that could be down to the weather and us having the heating on as she does like to lay in fornt of the radiator. She is still happy within herself and playful, still eating her meals and loves her walks. Nothing within herself has changed.

I have a 5yr old Bulldog/Mastiff mix. He is highly allergic to bug bites and will break out in lumps. Our vet has had him on Aloquel for about a yr, took him off during wintee months. This med helps with his paw licking but he gets large bleeding blisters in between his pads and has purplish blisters around his lips and chin on his bottom jaw. They show up randomly. The vet gave us an antibacterial spray but how do i prevent them?? We have tried numerous types of food, even made my own with all freshly made ingredients and have found no relief for him. He is currently eating the Dog for Dog brand. We tried Prednisone once, he couldn't control his own bladder, urinated on himself the whole time even after going outside, and was forced to wear a diaper...he is 135lbs so this was not an easy thing. When he is off the allergy meds he gets horrible ear infections, vet diagnosed as high yeast infection. Before the meds, a bug bite turned into a Staph infection.

My boxer is 1.5 yrs old and in the past few months I've noticed these bumps on her skin. They started out as lumps, then pustules that turn to crusts, and she eventually will lose her hair. She is very itchy and lethargic, just doesn't seem herself. I thought the first time I seen the pimple looking thing that her microchip was rejecting, but the vet said although that spot was indeed where her microchip is,that it is not rejecting she just has a skin condition that needs steroids and antibiotic. Since then it's gotten worse the bumps are everywhere. I've taken her to two different vets, and they can't seem to fix it, I am desperate. I have pictures from a microscope app on my phone, I need help, please!

My dog, Jack, has been getting blood blisters and swollen areas on his paws, mainly between his toes. This started last summer. The vet thinks it is allergy related, but we don't know what to. We are currently buried in snow, so grass hasn't been a culprit for months. He has a mostly grain-free diet except for some treats. We've used antibiotics and steroids, which clear things up, but once done, the problem promptly recurs. Apoquel hasn't had much effect either, and he has started scratching his body and ears while on it, which he hasn't done since this past fall. I don't want to use steroids long-term, which the vet is considering. What other options could you suggest for my 4 year old?

Quintus has been obsessively licking his penis, leaving it dried with prepuce retracted. When applying ointment and resheathing, I noticed that he has what look like blisters filled with clear fluid on his glans penis. When they pop (they are highly pressurized), they reform. I haven't noticed any pus or foul smell. This has been going on a number of months now. When I have him in an e-collar, they still form.

My Cane Corso that is only 10 months old has blood blisters on her back and forehead. She eats a great diet of Orijin and all grain free treats. She recently went to training and was in contact with other dogs. It seems to just be bloody and one on her back has burst. She seems lethargic as well. Should I take both my dogs to the vet? Is this common for young Cane Corso dogs?

Hello there, my dog has been licking his paw for a few days now, but I figured it wasn't anything major as it comes and goes, and he is very serious about keeping himself clean. I was able to get a good look at it and inside of the pad of his paw, the hair follicles are raised and yellow, looking almost infected. If you put pressure to them they rupture easily. There is also a black substance that could be scabbing, or maybe dirt, but I fear is some kind of fungus. Tonight I noticed a bald patch about the size of my thumb by his back hip, I assume from licking. We live in a very remote area so he has access to the local River and surrounding areas. I've cleaned up the site a little bit, and it seems to bother him less now, but do you think its possible it could be a fungal infection? Thank you again.

Hi, my name is Nikko. I'm curious about a few lumps that i've found on my dog Bailey's back. Unfortunately I can't afford to take him to the vet right now, or I would, and will anyways when I can afford it regardless of your assessment, but I'm hoping you can help me perhaps know whether or not I should be worried.

He is a more wire haired dog, perhaps a labradoodle. I brush him with a wire brush and defurminator regularly, and inspect the hair that comes off of him. Nothing ever shows up there. I have recently moved to a cabin in rural BC, Canada, where I noticed a spider birthing, and upwards of 1000 little spiders were around my place. I haven't gotten any notable bites though, and haven't seen many around since.

I shaved one of the lumps on his back (the location of all of them) to get a look at it. It is about 3/8 to 1/2 inches across, and perhaps raised about the thickness of 2 dimes or less. It is skin coloured, and it has a black hair or something in the middle of it. It looks to also be a darkened follicle or something that I can see going deeper into his skin through the translucent top bit of his skin. I gave the bump a little (very weak, less than popping a zit) squeeze, and noticed some yellowish clear pus emerge from a point on the circumference of the bump. They have seemed to persist for over two weeks now. I think they make him itch, but I can't be certain.

Bailey is on no medications, and I give him Advantage flea drops during flea season, usually in march or april, and then again in the summer. I would take him to the vet if I had the money in my bank account, but it's just not possible right now. Do these symptoms sound like I need to be selling my truck to get him some care? I can take a photo and send it to you if needed, but I don't have a good camera here with me now, i'll need to borrow one. Thank you very much for your time.

Hi My dog rocky is a pit mix and he has something in his ear he is only about 5or 6
weeks but it looks like puss but it’s a bubble and I’m a little worried it has gotten a little bigger a

We had no AC for a week, So i make sure dogs were kept cool since i have always worried about them overheating or become dehydrated Sasha started developing lumps on both the side of her face and top of her head. She has had slightly matted hair similar to it she started scraching so i grabbed her brush she lay on my lap and i gently brush and i noticed her hairs falling and when i took a look she was bleeding from them. So i left them alone and she is healing today i found a small lump on her lower back i grabbed it to take a closer look praying it wasnt a tick and to my surprise it popped and puss came out then blood after i cleaned the area well and make sure it's dry so no bacteria grows around there. She is in good spirits, appetite hasnt changed and playful and loving as always . I'm still worried because that's my baby.

Our puppy pug (10 months) recently developed small red bumps sporadically over several areas on her body. Mainly, her muzzle, top of head, under several pits, and at the base of her tail on her back. These come up white, but then turn red and eventually bleed and then scab. Any thoughts on what this could be and what we might do to treat?
