She looks bigger than the weight you described- Id have her weighed again to make sure it wasn't a scale error. I randomly bring oakley in to the vet and they let me put him on the scale then leave. As far as the bumps- they looked like flea bites to me…..it's always wise to bathe the pup before using topicals (especially at such a young age). Since you've alteady applied a topical, next step would be to wash and vacuum the whole house....I use a human live comb to comb through Oakleys fur since it's black, places like the tail and base of tail, underarms and head are hotspots to find them- if you still don't aee relief then I would go back to the bets because of it's something environmental then you need to adjust
Private part bumps
-
Sometimes it is nothing more than a little skin irritation. I'd suggest using baby wipes to wipe the area. I have had precisely 2 male dogs in 40 yrs so not much help on the male parts of dogs. Horses, lol, yes. Dogs, not so much.
-
I use Nature's Miracle wipes to clean that area, around the stomach and the rear end after walks to keep it clean daily.
-
Well…I don't shave my dog's privates so I'm pretty sure it isn't razor burn. O.o
And thanks nobarkus and DebraDownSouth, I'll start using wipes! -
My B occasionally get's those same types of little pimple type bumps by her privates as well…I just try and keep her clean and they go away...but do come back. She doesn't make any notice of it (extra licking in the area) so I am not concerned enough to take her to the vet at this point. I agree with the using the wipes...either baby wipes or a mild soap on a damp cloth. BTW my girls bumps are not quite on her privates but a little more north towards her stomach.

lol the razor burn person is troll spammer
-
I use unscented baby wipes to tidy up Kipawa's privates. He gets a bit of a wipe every evening.
-
Hmmm…it has never occurred to me that I should be wiping Blaze's (and Gracie's) private parts! We never did that with Maxx and in the 15 years we had him, never had a problem in that area. Guess I'll keep a closer eye on the two of them!
-
Thanks, everyone. We started wiping him once or twice a day. I hope the bumps clear up soon.

@joomakramjutt:
I am guessing razor burn, and some people guess by putting lotions on after shaving is best, but it is normally the cause.
Well. Regardless of whether this ….individual.... is a spammer...
It's funny and I don't care who ya are. LOL!!

Yeah, I knew he was a spammer, but I just figured I'd humor them. It is funny, but the other spam on the site that is completely random/irrelevant is just annoying.
