Hard, dime-size bump on bidge of upper snout between eyes.

Sun, Sep 7th 2008, 14:36 GMT

Our beautiful Kelpie has a new very hard bump that does not travel with the skin when moved. It's underneath the fur and seems to be on top of the bone/bridge of the upper snout between the eyes. She is 3, full of energy and personality, eats well, sleeps well, no other respiratory symtpoms except the last two years she gets severe rhinutitis during the rainy months and is on 10 mg Prednisone with a slow withdrawal and does great. This is different and we are very worried. She's highly active. Nice cold nose, clear, alert eyes.

Purpley-red lump on my bassest hound- beagle mix. located on his side. Any ideas??

Sun, Sep 7th 2008, 12:52 GMT

We recently found what looked like a small mole on my basset hound-beagle mix. We didn't think much of it till we noticed that it grew in size. It causes him no pain and its a bump that is purply-red. Its located on his side. its round and about a 1/2 inch in diameter. What could it be and how can we treat it?? A little worried so any advice would be awesome.

losing claw and sores on paw pads and small dry scabbed spots on her coat

Sat, Sep 6th 2008, 09:44 GMT

My dog is half Siberian Husky and half Rotweiler. She is almost 7 yrs old and this year she started having blister-like sores on the pads of her paws (mostly on the corners of the pads). Being a Husky, I know she can be prone to a zinc deficiency. Can this be the issue? I am noticing she has some dry scabbed over sores on her skin under her thick coat and her coat seems to be shedding more than usual and not as shiny. If she needs zinc, what is the dosage you recommend and should i add Omega 3 Fish Oil to her diet as well? is there a specific dog food you recommend? thanks Cheryl

Why does Bandit get "air bubbles" under his skin sometimes?

Sat, Sep 6th 2008, 08:39 GMT

This has happened twice to him. This time it happened after he had surgery for a puncture wound on the inside of his thigh. When you pet him, you can feel "air bubbles" under his skin. They even crackle-like bubble wrap!! Has anyone else ever experienced this? We have asked the vet, but he has no answers for us.

puppy "wiping" his nose?

Sat, Sep 6th 2008, 06:08 GMT

For the past couple days, Teddy will suddenly start wiping his nose on any surface he can find (floor, couch, etc). He does it furiously for a few minutes and then it is over. This happens several times throughout the day. I know I've been suffering from seasonal allergies--could this be his way of dealing with them?

My boxer dog that is 11 months old has red welt looking marks all over her.

Thu, Sep 4th 2008, 10:13 GMT

The red looking welt marks looks as if they are going to go away but then come back shortly after. What could be causing this? Should I take her to a vet to find out? Should I be concerned?
