aronoiiel Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 what part of the body is it on? To me the black spots look like flea dirt my first impulse on that would be itching and biting from fleas. Have you noticed an excess of nibbling and scratching? A little more info would help alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juneau Posted May 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Thats what i thought at first but she has not been itching at it or biting at all and the black spots are actually on her skin like little freckles. Its on her left from leg on the inside about 3/4 the way up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutsibe Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 It looks like a hot spot from your pic... If that's what it is, it's likely to be itchy. They're usually the result of an allergic reaction to something, often to flea bites, food allergies, or an allergic reaction to something else in the environment. If it's not better soon, have your vet take a look at it, as it might well need antibiotics and/or steroids to clear it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
