mitdlee4 Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Hello ive attached a picture trying to find out the cause of a pink spot on the corner of his mouth that has begun to loose hair, it seems dirty and irritated however it does not bother him at all.

Siberianski Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 No sure really if you are concerned i would get him to the vets to be on the safe side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleLuka Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 reminds me of luka's spot but with less hair. his is also on his snout but farther away from his lips. i don't know what it is, and it also doesn't seem to bother him. i think we will be taking him to the vet if it's not cleared up soon.

sharloid Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Is he/she crated? If so and not all too happy about it, it could be rubbing when trying to get out of the crate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juneau Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Could be zrd caused by a zinc deficiency. What are you feeding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutsibe Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Looks like it could be ZRD - nothing to panic about, but if it is, it should be treated. Here are some links to further info on ZRD... http://gimpydogblog.blogspot.com/2008/08/zinc-responsive-dermatosis-zrd.html http://ic.upei.ca/cidd/disorder/zinc-responsive-dermatosis (a more direct link from the one above to info specific to ZRD) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balonsmom Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 I was thinking zrd as well? Have a vet look at it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
