Hi there. I have a lovely, 4yr old staff cross. She's very fit and healthy as a rule. However, just recently she injured one if her pads which we treated accordingly, but the injury meant much less exercise than she's used to for a week. It has now healed well.
Yesterday she developed some small bumps ( almost like spots)all over her body that anybody else probably wouldn't notice, and she was scratching a lot. I bathed her in antibacterial shampoo and today they seem to be clearing up and she's stopped scratching. My concern is that she's just not herself at all. She's not as energetic as usual and her eyes look tired. I have an appointment at the vets in 2 days ( the earliest I can do due to work) but if anyone thinks its an emergency ill take her sooner. I have been told by friends and family that I overreact and I admit, that I may have tendency to worry as she's my beloved companion but I don't want to ignore something that could potentially be serious.
I'd be very grateful of any advice offered. Thank you
