Ask the Veterinarian - Schnauzer with a rash


Expert: Charlotte Sherrell, DVM - 11/6/2009

Question
My 2 1/2 year old schnauzer has a rash. I first noticed it under her arms. A day later, I noticed her neck is the same way. I have attached a picture. Is this allergies or should I take her to our vet?

Answer
Carolyn -

Unfortunately, there is no way for me to determine if your dog has allergies by looking at a picture.  Have your dog evaluated by your veterinarian as soon as possible - whatever the cause of the dermatitis, your vet should be able to provide a diagnosis and treatment.


Best Regards,

Charlotte Sherrell, DVM
