Sorry in advance as this may be a bit long.
I noticed about 3 days ago mavs white patch of fur on his chest was quite pink. i knew his harness was a bit snug so i went out and got him a new harness and picked up some bil jac treats even tho they arent too healthy i figured whatever-theyre treats. so today i go to check his ears and they are also a brighter shade of pink and his little nub, the bottom doesnt have much hair, and it is pink also...chest is still pink too. Im thinking it must be a food allergy.
I want to figure this out before we change his food. He has been eating purina and never had this problem, the treats i could get him to eat before were milk bone and beggin strips which i dont think caused the problem either because theyre fairly normal part of his diet. in the past few days he has stolen pop corn and also i gave him some cheese. That is all i can think of. I washed his bedding but that was over 2 weeks ago.
As of right now he is not getting any treats or anything else just food an water and we will see if everything returns to normal. I should mention that he is in no pain and is a regular puppy in every other way full of energy and loves to cause trouble. he hasnt been eating much but i think we may have spoiled him with treats....
Any input you could give us would be really appreciated. What do we do next? Start adding back in his treats to see what is the cause? Thanks for reading this!
