Dog with red scabby skin on stomach
My yellow lab (4yo male neutered) has developed a red splochy stomach and it has some scabs on it. It also looks like he is losing slight bits of hair in spots on his front and rear shoulders. Im thinking that it might be heat spots or some kind of skin disease. We have 2 other Golden Retrievers and neither of them have developed any symptoms, What could be the cause of this? |

Dog licking and biting paws
For approx. 4 months my dog has been constantly licking and biting all four paws, leaving them red, irritated and hairless. She has seen two vets, one diagnosing an allergy the other a fungus. No treatment has had any affect. What can this be and how is it treated? - Click
