I was wondering how Mavi's condition is. This is in regards to the bumps.

Could possibly be a staph infection too. Our girl started out at 8 months with bumps that looked like ant bites/pimples and after several months and a trip to the dermatologists we found out that it was a staph infection. We had her allergy tested and my gosh this dog is allergic to almost everything outside. Good thing she has no food allergies b/c she eats anything and everything. We have her on allergy shots every 10 days and when she has an outbreak we give her antibiotics, a low dose of steroid/antihistamine and bathe her with Malaseb Medicated Shampoo that I buy at my vet's office. It's been an uphill battle, especially with the heat and everything here in Texas.

WEll, Mavi is getting better, I believe. His bumps are almost gone, except a few on his head but those are a little different than th eones on his body anyway. fungus medication is working so far. he is happier and not scraching as much. hair is also growing but still shedding overall too much hair for my likings. he still has another 2 weeks or so with this medication so will see. I hope they don't come back. we think that he got this fungus from the dog park we used to take him. I guess we'll never now. we stopped going there any more. he has also just recovered from a cold, when it rains it pours!! he was very sick, did not eat for several days etc. I cried!!! yes I did!! now much better. almost 6 months now and 60 pounds and still coming!!!
