Boston Terriers/red spots on belly

Expert: - 7/4/2008


Question
My Boston has red spots that have recently appeared on her chest and belly.  She does not dig or itch which makes me believe she does not have fleas.  What could be the cause?  It is the holiday weekend so I cannot get to the vet.

Answer
Hi Brooke-  I am wondering if your little boston came into contact with something that is causing an allergic reaction. (?)
What you can do is give 1 benadryl ( 25mg) every 12 hrs.  If the area gets better, then you know it was an allergy to something.

If the problem continues, call the vet on Monday..
Give it a few days before you worry .... OK?
