Strange rash on belly :(

Spanishfrenchie · Jul 24, 2016

Hi again!

My pup has these strange marks on her belly!? Should i be worried? I noticed them yesterday, i have an appointment with my vet on Friday but should i go before? They're like little red marks, i don't know how to explain them!? Hope you can see clearly in the pic. Please let me know if your pup has had anything similar and the cause x

Are they just in the belly?

Nellie had something similar for a couple of days. I wiped the area down with unscented wipes and put some polysporin. It went away after a few days

agree -- may just be irritation from rug or grass

Looks like hives maybe?

Thanks all, went to vets for her second jab (she squealed like a little pig, i was horrified

then shook for 20 minutes afterwards, horrible!!) And he checked her over. Seems very healthy so fingers crossed she is lucky and can avoid the majority of Bully problems. I asked about the rash and he said not to worry, seems like a mild irritation possibly new bed or something, anyway they're disappearing so panic over!! X

Wait. They vaccinated her while she had the rash on her belly?!

Glad she is doing better. They will get rashes from time to time, from a new bed, or grass, for rug, or just about anything. The problem is trying to find out what the culprit is.

Rico has the same exact rash that comes and goes... The vet said it could be a whole bunch of different things causing it, but most likely irritation and/or allergy/sensitivity... He gave me a medicated shampoo phytovet ck and said to use it every other bath... He said try this before we jump to conclusions and treat anything too aggressively. It totally cleared it up. Give it a try!

Great thanks, will have a look online although not sure if I will be able to get it here in Spain. How often do you bath Rico? Luckily it was a small rash, didn't spread or seem to itch her and went over a few days

I bathe him once a week unless he goes to the dog park then it's pretty much every time he goes lol

Jax just got a rash on his underside and I rubbed it with coconut oil twice a day and gave him Benadryl and it is almost gone now. He has really bad environmental allergies and gets a bath once a week with a shampoo similar to the one [MENTION=1886]Joeturbo26[/MENTION] is using. I get it from Amazon.
