Messi's rash is finally gone for good.

I decided to buy him one last spray at petco, its active ingredient is the same as in people face wash for acne! Benzoyl peroxide, well benzoyl alcohol in his, but same thing.

i got it for him maybe 2 or so months ago, after 2 days all spots were gone and i have stopped spraying him with it about a month and a half or 2 months and no spots have returned. It appears that he just had crotch acne! lol.


At least i found something that really works.

Glad it's gone! Didn't know dogs could get acne...especially in the crotch! lmao

So glad to hear you finally figured figured it out!

I just wish it didn't take a year and 5 vet trips to do so. they thought it was irriation from shampoo and allergies and staph infection and puppy dermititis and red mange. Rarrrrr finally a $11 dollar bottle of spray worked.

Just out of curiosity...every time you go to the vet, do you have to pay? Or are check-ups free and you only pay for shots & treatments? Up here all of my pup's shots are free but getting him fixed in September is gonna cost me $250. Just want to be prepared for when we go back South.

on no I paid each visit. 250 is steep for a neuter though.

I paid from 65-100 each visit. Need to go again for his shots soon.

Vet prices can vary so much depending on where you live and depending on the vet clinic. The normal price to neuter dogs at my dogs vet is between $500 and $600. We unfortunately live in an area where vet care is pretty expensive though.

Kendalle that is too bad you had to make so many visits to try to figure out what's wrong with him. At least in the end it turned out to be something cheap to treat though! Buying $11 bottles of spray is a lot better than having to keep buying a bunch of expensive meds from the vet.

Yikes, i know they vary a lot but thats insane. No wonder lots of people don't spay or neuter.
