Dog problem, I need serious help.?

She has dry skin and the ichy areas she has are bitten raw. I've tried using Neosporin,but that does nothing. And its getting worse each day.Help.

Dog problem, I need serious help.?
She could have allergies, rash, fleas ... all sorts of things but by putting Neosporin on it you just encourage her licking it and the bitten raw areas are subject to secondary infections. If an infection takes hold, it can be very stubborn to get rid of... and then you really have a messy and expensive problem.


Take her now to the vet before she gets to that point. It not only must be driving her crazy, it must hurt alot too. A vet visit cost is about 10? tubes of Neosporin and that's not going to help her anyway.





Take her and you both will be more happy.
Reply:call the vet, they will be able to help you.
Reply:she may have allergies take her to the vet asap
Reply:you should take her to the vet and see what he thinks. it sounds like she needs a perscription.
Reply:Don't use Neosporin on it.





Call your Vet first thing.





Could be food allergies. It could also be environmental, or air born allergies.





Feed a high quality diet, and avoid anything from a grocery store, drug store, or gas station.
Reply:To the vet you go! ASAP. It could be something very serious or it could be something very common. But definetly, to the vet!!
Reply:have u tried using special skin shampoo for dogs
Reply:It could be allergies in which case you could probably just solve the problem by changing her food or whatever your vet says.


or it could be hot spots. hot spots usually ooze some type of fluid. In this case your vet could prescribe some type of ointment for her.


Ask your vet.
Reply:Get her to the vet asap - could be allergies, could be a skin condition. In either case, you need to find out what it is and treat it with the proper meds.
Reply:it sounds like your dog is suffering from allergies. i would(as the others have) recommend you take your dog to the vet. if it will take a while to get an appointment you might want to try bathing in an oatmeal shampoo and conditioner and applying cortizone cream to the affected areas! it will help with the itching until you can get to a vet! but please take her to the vet (they have different ways to find out her allergies..hypoallergenic foods, vitamins or pills to help with the itch!) my dog is going through it all now!he had an allergy test done($270)still waiting on results!
