Topic Dog Boards / Health / Red spot on Staffie?
- By Gemini05 Date 21.06.07 18:08 UTC
Hi, just been searching around on CD to see if I can help a friend out, but with no joy!

Her staffie who is 14 mths old has a red spot on the back of his shoulder, it is bald and is small and roundish.
He doesn't seem bothered by it and it is doesn't seem to have got any bigger but she was wondering what it was.
I have had a look and to the unprofessional eye it looks like acne? Just a normal blood spot, we bathed it in Hibbi scrub and wound powder.
She is due to take him to the vets next thursday.
Any ideas or thoughts would be great thank you! :D

Both my Gordons have had acne, and my youngster is going through that stage just now.  Some dogs can be really bad with it.  Unless they get infected, I normally just leave them alone and keep an eye on them.

My friend with dobes always used sudocrem on their acne.
