Hello all,
So... my accident prone 6 mo. old lab has done it again. I think.
She's to the point where she is challenging her boundaries, and her social position, so when she came home from daycare about a month ago with a tiny bald spot over her eye I assumed she had gotten into a little tiff with another dog and the bald spot was just a battle wound that would grow back quickly enough. But, it's been a little over a month since the incident, and her hair hasn't grown back. The bald spot is actually growing instead. While before it was about the size of a pinhead, it is now almost the size of a dime. It seems like there may be a little bit of swelling in the area, but nothing noticeable.
I guess I am just wondering if anyone else has gone through this? And what did you do? I'm concerned it may be mites, a fungus or an abcessed wound that we would have to get lanced...
