This needs to be checked out by your vet.
I cant afford it ... I been applying ointment for the past few day
It could be Demolex mites-rash,walking dandruff,flea allergy. Caution-Demolex can be passed to other pets and family.
I understand you can't afford vet care.
Crowd sourcing for medical advice (for people or pets) can be very dangerous for your pup and if someone gives you wrong info you could make things worse or even have tragic results. I have seen this happen so I really strongly urge you to seek professional advice from a vet.
Will your vet answer a question over the phone for free or maybe look at a photo? Our vet is very good with that and perhaps can give you an over the counter and inexpensive treatment.
Ask your vet if they will offer a payment plan or discount if you need to take him in. Many will work with you. There are also reduced cost clinics in most big cities if you are near one.
The last resort for money to pay is set up a small Go Fund Me request. People are very willing to help especially when a pet is involved.
Please post back with an update. Healing prayers for your pup!!
Thank you for your concern and prayers. The redness practically went away I still dont know what it was... i been applying Neosporin and excuse the angle of the photo lol !
Prayers will continue. If you can get the pup into the vet some time soon, ask if they can give you something to prevent it from happening again. Be sure to show them the photos!
It could be grass or weed allergy, or yeast infection or hot spots. Next time try Benadryl for babies or half water n vinegar n soak areas n let air dry if yeast. If hot spots use cotton pads soaked in witch hazel n apply as many times a day or spray on 1/2 peroxide n 1/2 water as dog permits.
