Doggie pimples
I am just wondering if anyone has ever or does have a dog that randomly gets pimples on his/her body?
My dog has never had one on her face, but gets random ones from time to time on her back. Most of the times they are under the skin lumps, which I wonder if they are considered to be cysts.
Do you do anything about them?

Re: Doggie pimples
My shtz tzu gets them. Vet told me nothing to worry about. They usually pop on their own. Now that he is getting older he is getting more and more. I just keep an eye on them and if they get big or discolored, I will take him to the vet, the little ones he has, the vet said were normal. Also, I use an oatmeal bath when bathing which helps alot, cuts the oil.

Re: Doggie pimples
These can be benign cysts or sometimes a mild allergy. If there are any persistent ones, I would recommend getting them checked out to be sure.
