Woody has a scabby back of ear =[ (2 Photos)
« on: September 23, 2011, 08:43:18 PM »
Hi, hope someone can help. I'm really worried sick now =[

I've jut noticed this on the back of the left of Woody's ear and am not sure what it is?

 

He doesn't seem bothered by it and I haven't noticed him scratching it all but Casper has sniffed it a few times. I'm really worried  :'(

Oh poor little boy :'( No idea what it is sorry, looks infected though, probably a vet job. Give him a kiss from me and Ebby :-*

Can't be too sure but looks a little like Pyoderma - right picture looks a little 'angry' & possibly infected & may need AB's if it is?
Livie gets this through the summer months & AB's to the trick & keep it at bay.....although on saying that, i usually know it's flairing up as it's itchy for her, so could be wrong  ;) :lol2:

Think a vet visit is needed just incase it is someething that need med help  :shades:  :luv:
If your dog thinks you're the best.....don't seek a second opinion!!

Bless, I wouldnt worry to much, hard to tell buy a pic. To me it just looks like a dry scab which has been scratched off. Pop to the vets hun, I'm sure it will clear up pretty quickly x

Thank you so much for your replies. I have bathed it with salt water and will do so again before bed and see how it is in the morning. Poor Woody is such a little worry for me. There's always something I'm worrying about with him. Never had this before with Chip.
