Great to hear that Rocky's on the road to recovery. To add on to what everyone mentioned, we recommend looking into the food because it's really a factor on our bully's health. Finding out what the root cause of Rocky's hives will save you from visiting your vet often, and for the same symptom. Stig had hives from allergies when we first got him and probably spent near a grand on vet visits and meds (including antibiotics). A couple of months later we got lucky and found the right diet for him. Haven't gone to the vets for allergies ever since.

Oh, Rocky's adorable! Always love hearing stories of kids with their bff bullies.

Rocky is a doll boy!

Bumps are such a general term....Bea and Bo have both had at least SIX DIFFERENT KINDS (in appearance anyway) over time. It's hard to tell what it is without a good look.

Glad you went to the vet! Make bathtime fun for Rocky and then bathing will be a fun activity for you both - and an opportunity to bond and establish your leadership - and not a dreaded chore.

Sounding more like food issue.... check out the list of recommendations in the nutrition section/thread. I'd also have the vet check it, if they are not red, but are dry (kind of like dandruff) it could be a staph infection and he need an antibiotic to treat it.

I agree

Last and final dipping tomorrow. Thank goddness. Rocky seems to be mad at me when he gets home after these dippings. He goes in at 8 and comes home about 630. He has to stay there all day. :( very upsetting not having my best bud by my side. Well after this one he is done. Almost 6 months old too.
