My dog keeps bitting her tail 😔

Hi Reddit friends, as the tittles says my dog has been bitting her tail and I’m not sure why. I looked at her tail and she has made it bleed. Is this an emergency? I’ve only had her for 11 months she’s a 7 year old Schnauzer. This is the first time she has done this.

Advice on fixing carpet

Hi guys, my Akita puppy has chewed multiple spots in our carpet. Sadly, we live in an apartment complex so we need to fix this ASAP. Does anybody have any tips or recommendations? Please help!

Is whitening of the face always indicative of getting old?

We rescued this handsome boy, Hamlet, about 3 years ago from the local county animal shelter. We were told at that time he was about 1-2 years old. The past year his face has been getting whiter and whiter. Does this mean he’s older than they guessed?

Smaller mixed breed with likely dermatitis caused by seasonal allergies, advice or tips please?

So my I-dont-know cattle dog or possible staffy terrier mix (female, spayed, about three and a half) had a vet visit today to try to figure out her sudden, intense itchiness, and the vet confirmed that it's likely dermatitis via pollen. She is going on apoquel for a two week trial to see if it helps (best option based on her symptoms) My question is, for anyone who has a pup who deals with bad itchiness a few times a year, what have you found that helps them be more comfortable? I wipe her down after walks and before bed and that definitely helps, I just thought I'd ask here for more advice to help her out until the meds take effect and longer term in case it's not a solution for her. Thanks!

Black mole appeared, desperate need of advice!

Hey! I’m a little worried about my pup, I was petting him today and felt a lump. I was wondering if any of y’all have any clue as to what it could be, I will be scheduling an appt to get it checked out but I’m so scared and would very much appreciate any guidance y’all can give…

Red/feckled brown spot that appeared on puppys neck. Anyone ever see this before that can help identify?

Black scab like spot on skin

Hard to get her to stay still for a pic, but what is this black spot on her skin that feels like a scab? Noticed it a week or two ago and seems like it might be getting slightly bigger

Skin color change?

My dog (5-6yrs old) had three lumps removed from his skin. One here at this bald spot pictured and two on his back. When he came home, the freshly shaved spots had pink skin underneath. As weeks have gone by, the skin that was shaved has become darkly spotted. In one spot on the back, it’s become completely dark skin. No discomfort associated with any shaved region. My husband and I adopted him 5mo ago and don’t know his back ground. We believe he’s a shepherd/border collie mix? Anyways, does anyone know why this change in skin color would occur?

Does anyone know what this small pink spot is on my dog's lip? I noticed it after playing fetch in the yard. He doesn't yelp or cry when I touch it and it doesn't seem to impact eating or drinking.

Heil spez, heil... oh wait
