mccroryart 0 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 My pup ran into the door frame last week so when I saw a bump on his head I thought nothing of it but now he has another. Anyone know what these are? Eamonn Quote Link to post Share on other sites

labsnlurchers 39 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Not sure of what it is but if i were you id get a bottle of hibiscrub and wash it with this daily. Also heard of an old boy that yoghurt is good for regrowing hair on a dog, never tried it though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
martin 332 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 There is a possibility that it could be mange mate,so,a trip to the vets is on the cards I'm afraid,don't let it get out of control.........martin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ulverston moocher 60 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 my mate's staff had bald patches vet treated for ring worm. I never saw it he just described it to me so ive never seen ring worm on a dog but just a thought with the loss of hair in random patches. If im well wrong no snoty replies as I have said never seen it just a thought. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mccroryart 0 Posted December 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Thanks for the replies. I'll take him to the vet at the weekend. They don’t seem to bother him and he’s not scratching at them. I’ll let you know what the vet says. Eamonn Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mccroryart 0 Posted December 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Vet says its not ringworm or anything like that they are just caused by him running into things. So no treatment necessary and the no charge. Eamonn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
