Maximus has Hyperkeratosis on all four pawpads. It is severe. I have had to take him to the Vet to have her trim the excess skin because it has "smushed" sideways on the pawpads. I have tried to trim the excess skin myself with scissors and with a dremel, to no avail. Either I need much sharper...

I took Spartacus to the vet and got him a through check out. So far, the bill is running me about $1K. Medications for his Cherry Eye and his ear infection seems to be taking most of the weight from my wallet. But he has had blood drawn as well and a few other tests. He's on three different eye...

Wondering if anyone has had experience with skin tags on their bullies. My bully has what I believe to be on on her "elbow".... Do they get bigger? Should they get removed? I'm going to have the vet verify my thoughts on what it is, but just looking for some opinions on them!

Hi all, Totally new to the bully world and to this forum. We got our baby bully 3 months ago when he was 12 weeks old and we're totally smitten! However, pretty much since he arrived with us he has had terrible hives and red, hot itchy skin on his belly which now seems to be spreading to his...

I think Mr. Chubbs has fall allergies. He is almost two, so not sure as he has only lived through one fall so far and he isn't old enough to be allergy tested (nor do I wish to pay for allergy testing if I can avoid it). He was having skin issues on his face last fall too. But his face has been...
