Hey guys I have a quick question. I recently noticed my boxer is getting some bumps on his head. They are on the top of his head & behind his ears. They're not red or anything and they don't bother him but i dont know what they are. They almost look like pjmples. Anyone experience this before?
Are they hard like pimples? If so they are likely protein pimples, they are pretty common in younger dogs and usually disappear on their own. If they are seeping at all then I would have them looked at by a vet as it could be a bacterial skin infection or even staph.
They're hard... not open or seeping.. that's why I'm not rushing him to the vet just yet. I wasn't sure if they were allergies?? There's maybe ten total scattered around his head. I also thought it could be because him and my bulldog bite each other. Not in an aggressive way... they wrestle around and chew on each other when they're playing... not to break skin or be nasty but that's just how they play... they start out with their mouths open then end up licking each other lol. Wasn't sure if it could be from that either since it only started after we got our bulldog.
