OK I have a pup bout 6 months old. she just got these crazy bumps show up on her feet, and it is mainly on her feet up bout 8 in. On every foot. Then there is one on her vulva, and about 6 on her belly. I have no idea what they are or what caused them. All the other dogs are fine, no mosquitoes, no bugs I saw. Has anyone ever seen this before?


Like I said this is on every foot, and a few spots but just one bump in the other spots.... Im gonna make a vet trip if I cant figure it out.

I had something very similar on a pup. It was caused from some kind of mite. Get some Prolate/Lintox and mix 1 oz. to a gal. of water.
Use a wash cloth and saturate the skin all over the dog. Treat all the dogs on your place. Treat twice a week for about 3 weeks. Spray down kennels and sleeping quarters. Get you a tube of Nu-Stock and squeeze the whole tube into a big squirt bottle. Cut the Nu-Stock
with baby oil and mix good until it can be sprayed through the squirt bottle. Spray the affected spots with the Nu-Stock daily. She should be cleared up completely in about a month or two.

One of my dogs just got something like this a week ago on his back. Vet looked for mites but were none. He said it was a staph infection. Gave me pills and shampoo for it. Is the dog chewing or scratching the hair off? My dogs hair was just falling off around the bumps

Ive got something similar going on, but its not just one dog, ive had 4-5 get like that. Vet said some kind of infection. But the first dogs that got it are all back slick now. Never seen nothin like it. Had about 3 have a patch right between shoulder blades that the hair falls out like mange lookin. I don't know what it is, but seems to run it's course and go away. Some worse than others.

Yeah I thought it was the mange too but he doesn't seem to scratch it. The hair just falls out. He clogged my drain with hair. I'll be washing him with the hose for now on.

Just took a pup in to the vet this morning for what looks like the same thing.  Like somebody else said it was a staph infection.  Got her an antibiotic shot and she should be good to go.

Looks like staph infection to me as well. Antibiotic should do the trick.

wine, If it is some sort of infection, fine, give antibiotics. If it is mites such as it was with my pup a few years back then you will be given
her antibiotics for nothing which is not a good thing. My pups leg looked identical. The vet confirmed it was mites by taking a skin scraping. You will only be guessing
at the problem because it will take a vet to determine if it is mites or staph infection. If you don't want to bring her to a vet then take a guess and treat accordingly. I just don't like giving antibiotics if there is no infection.
