got a dog has exactly those symptoms, took her to the vet yesterday and they said it was a staff infection, recommended cephalexin for a week to cure it.  Said conditions have to be just right and it gets in through a break in the skin somewhere.

I know someone who has a lab pup with bumps all over him, they look like warts has anyone ever seen that before?

Does the wart looking bump wipe off easy and then gets bloody after scrubing?

Try wiping it with a scour pad and if it rubs off pretty easy and then bleads let me know.
