Yorkie Skin Question: dry bumps - YorkieTalk.com Forums

trgotreaux · 09-18-2012, 08:05 PM

I have a 6month old Yorkie. A few weeks back i noticed he had a bump or two on his neck. I didn't think much of it but over the past week they have multiplied. They are not noticeable unless your are feeling his neck. The skin is raised and dry, some of the bumps have small scabs. the skin is not discolored nor or the bumps filled with puss, he has also lost no hair in the spots and they do not seem to cause him pain. I am concerned and want to keep my little guy healthy. Has anyone experienced this with their Yorkie or have any advice? thanks for your help.

Peanut has had some bumps, but those were due to an allergy in food- They might be flea bites...

I would take him into the Vet to see what is going on, it could be more, it could be less you just never know.
