Hi everyone,
I'm new but have been on this site regularly and it's excellent. My 12 month cav bitch has what look like large freckles on her belly area. They are about the size of a 5 cent piece and light brown in colour. They are not sore or raised at all.
She was spayed about 6 weeks ago so the area was shaved and she did not have any 'freckles' then. Just recently we have noticed these appear because the hair has not fully grown back yet. Someone has suggested that they are part of her mammary glands but some 'freckles' are located on other parts of her belly.
Is this just a skin pigmentation or is it something more serious?
Also every morning she has a right old scratch at her ears(about 3 mins) sometimes whining, is there anything I could get for her for example drops in the Pet store or should I take her to the Vet? Tis doesn't bother her at all throughout the day. Could it be ear mites or something?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
I will try to put a picture of Pippins(Blenheim) up so you can all see how beautiful she is!!
Thanks again.
