irish lassie09 7 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 hi i was just wondering if any one could help me with this. my pup of 5months got a bald spot at first we thought the other dog took a bite out of her ( now that could be what happened) but its got little lumps on in now like pimples and looks a bit red shes never at it when we're around her so i didnt think it was bothering her but when i went out this morning she was scratching in the box. she's had all her shots been wormed. shes recently been sorted with the frontline spot on for fleas but she had the bald spot before this.. i have photos but there not great.. also its look like she has dandruff not sure if it common in dogs but i have the medicated shampoo to see if it clears that up. any help would be appreciated thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TOPPER 1,809 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 its a job to tell from the pic but fungal infections are common this time of year the easy way to treat it is with caniston duo you can get it from any chemists its for thrush but it works well on ringworm and any other fungal problems dont bother with antibiotic s as they wont work with fungal infections Quote Link to post Share on other sites
