She was eating Royal Canin Bulldog Puppy up until about 2-3 weeks ago, that's when just a few little places came up on her. Upon researching, I thought maybe she developed a food allergy with the fillers that RC uses. I switched her to Fromms puppy (pink bag). she is also on NuVet supplement and I have been giving her Derma form liquid (3 squirts) on her evening feedings.

I was just feeling all over her body, and just realized this place on her neck, its the only place like this on her body, but this just scared the heck out of me. I am going to see if my vet can do an emergency call.

I agree a vet visit seems necessary.

and just as I figured, no one can see her today. :( This is stressing me out, she seems to feel fine, but something is defiantly wrong.

Something is wrong, but don't stress, nothing that can't wait til tomorrow. Is she itching?? If so, you can give her some Benadryl 1 pill per 25 lbs. That will help with the itching and make her sleepy.

I have been giving her one benedryl for the past few days at bedtime, she does scratch quite a bit, and would love to turn around and lick the areas, but of course she cant. poor lil girl. :( I also had a few ammoxocyln laying around, I gave her 1/4 of it, reading it sounds like clavamox is good for some skin issues, figured it cant hurt.

Kelly is right, relax, it's going to be okay until you can see your regular vet. It's definitely allergies. Has she had vaccines lately or fleas and flea treatment? the front on the neck looks like a hot spot that's been there a couple of days. the hind quarter spots could be the secondary staph infection from the immune system being stressed. you can relax, give her a couple of Benedryl like Kelly said and let her relax.
Stress makes skin issues seem worse for you and the dog.
If you haven't had vaccines or flea treatment lately and you want to try something holistic, you could give her a simple bath
(not oatmeal shampoo) and then final rinse with 1 gal. water to 1 cup white vinegar. and leave it on.
You are already feeding her well and giving a good supplement

I get a product from Amazon called Douxo they make pads , shampoo, mouse and some other good products. I really like their products for spot treatments and the shampoo works great too. the pads 3% Chlorhexidine are a dream for folds, ropes and tails

Let me know what the vet says and keep calm :yes4: this is pretty much common

use white vinegar instead of ACV ? I had literally ran to the store to buy her some, seeing some people say ACV instead of white vinegar, I will wait for the response. I have the GNC Anti Fungal/Bacterial shampoo for her.

- - - Updated - - -

and I forgot to mention, she has had no vaccine for the past month or two (she is all up to date on everything) and her flea meds (sentinel or something like that) was on the 20th of August.
