Megan
Megan has developed small pinkish rings on her stomach and salled ones on her feet. The stomach rings are about nickel size and she licks them alot. What do you think they may be, and how can we treat them?
Thank You

The most common things are a staph infection ( bacterial) on the skin especially under the belly. They are usually very itchy too. If you look carefully enough you may see that the edges of these rings are flaky and starting to peel away.
This is something that warrants a visit to your vets office tomorrow as it sounds like she will need oral antibiotics.
