Dog Leaking

Dear Sir,

I have a 15 months old dog named Pounai. She has started leaking her abdomen frequently and keep scratching which causes red spots mainly on her abdomen and also used to bite her breast quite often. She is losing her fur too. She eats rice with vegs & non-vegs and has good appetide. She is quite active and very fond of playing but usually pee when she gets over excited. Please advice.

Thanks,

Leshi

I think you are talking about Licking? First off her diet of just veggies and rice is bad! Dogs need meat!

Did she have puppies recently? If not I would take her to the vets..their might be an infection in the teets.

Be on the safe side I would take her in period and get advice about a proper diet ok?

Totally agree with amaruq!! Dogs are omnivores!! They need more meat in their diet than carbo's though. I take it, you're a vegetarian? And if your not, then do you know anything about dogs?

Dear Amurag,

Thanks alot for the reply. My dog takes both meat & vegs. More often meat. She eats whatever I eat & very fond of fruits like apple, oranges, grapes & bannana sometime. She is not pregnant. I never let her out of my apartment. Please suggest what medicine could be best to reduce her licking. I think she feels scratchy all the time. I used to give her bath twice a month with sampoo with little of detol. Kindly suggest more tips.

Thanks & regards,

Leshi

I'm not sure what you mean by "detol"? I would stop the baths and see if that helps. Dogs do not usually need to be bathed that often.

Your dog may have allergies too. Allergies in dogs cause itching.

Does she have fleas?

Also do not give her too many grapes. They are not good for dogs.

Hi Luckyrescue,

Thanks!
I don't really know whether my dog has fleas or not but I have not found one from her as yet. What is the minimium bath required for a dog in a month? Regarding the allergies, whats the best way to get rid of this. Will I get allergies too. Most of the time we stayed together. She is losing her fur too. Please advice.

Sounds like allergies....you are gonna have to figure out what is causing it. I wonder if the fruit is possibly the culprit here?
