Red Splotches on Tummy

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • S

    Jasper has irregular red splotches on his tummy where his hair is the thinnest. They don't seem crusty or infected. He's not licking or paying any attention to them. Advice?

    does he lay in the grass? ant bites or sensitivity to the grass on the skin, ever sit on the grass yourself and get those funny red spots and or indentions? maybe the same thing or him laying on a rug that has been cleaned with something he may be allergic to? If they do not clear up in a day or two or get worse; definitely see a Vet!

    We did a biopsy a week into it and it was not cancerous, so waiting for the bump to go away was the only other option. I though surgery would be too intrusive in the nose area. Kiya had to endure two weeks of wearing the cone day and night to prevent her from scratching her nose. She seems to get all kinds of things around her nose, just recently she got bitten by a bee nosing around in the grass and was back into the cone for a week.

    I agree Pat-no pumpkin when they are having tummy troubles. Plain Yoghurt is also good.

    I work for a carpet cleaning company and we use a product called FLUOROSIL for pet stains. I don't know if you can order this because we get it wholesale, but you can try: www.interlinksupply.com If you can't get this product or don't want to wait for it to be shipped try 1 part white vinegar to 4 parts water. I'd probably try this first… might save you some money! Good luck.

    I've never heard of using tea tree oil before. I'll have to give that a try too. With Max, I had to put him in his e collar when I used sprays or creams. With Zoey and Tyler–they don't seem to lick at creams (or sprays once they've dried). An old vet of mine used to put something bitter in sprays to keep dogs from licking after you sprayed--it seemed to work pretty well with Max. He'd take one sniff and wrinkle up his nose.
