What is this? Rash or injury?
He’s not bothered by it, it flares red when he plays. The mornings it’s pale. Doesn’t itch it, doesn’t flinch when I clean it with cream or spray. It looks like it hurts terrible, I’m not sure he knows it’s there. 2 weeks to this stage. 2 yo male Frenchie. August 13 started antibiotics, off August 23
Dog sometimes goes right to bed after dinner/doesn’t want to go out before bed.
Hey y’all, just looking for some other opinions. My rescued pit mix is about 4 this year and has no issues going potty inside the house. He goes out during the day multiple times (we live the urban life, but we are very outside active). Generally his routine is poop and pee on our morning long walks and evening long walks, and pee on our other outside time/walks during the day. Sometimes (1x-2x/month) though our routine is thrown off (life stuff, weather, etc) and he will eat his dinner and then fall asleep on the couch and not want to go back outside, he will just walk to bed and fall asleep. In the morning I will usually take him out before he eats to make up for the sometimes 15 hours he goes without being outside, and he will just do his normal business. Is this healthy? I know he is capable of telling me he needs to go out, but I don’t want to mistakenly trust his judgment of his potty-ing needs and him end up with some bladder infection or something? Thanks!
