    This came up on my dog almost overnight. Could it be ringworm? It has been there about 10 days now. Treated with NuStock, didn't do much good. Then treated with hydrogen peroxide and neosporin and it got better for a day. When I skipped a day it got worse. It now is oozing sticky liquid and blood that dries around the edges. It seems to be painful to the touch as well. It keeps getting a little better then worse... getting worried. Thanks for any advice.....

    labulldogers girl,

    P.S. You know if this was labulldoger he would just shoot it up with penicillin and let it go.... Im a little more particular, cuz this is my baby. So thanks guys :)

    You can shine a black light over it two out of the four fungi that cause it will turn green. I think thats what it looks like but idk. You can try to get some antifungal shampoo. Or you can just take him to your vet.

    i know what that is my girl had it. its called a button tumor. sounds worse than it is , it could last up to three months, 9 out 10 go away on there own if they dont it will need surgery. just keep it clean and dry and put some anti bacterial on it .

    Sounds like it to me as well. I would go ahead and drop a dime on a vet though. It could be malignant as hell and metastasize to an organ.

    It kinda looks like the thing that was on my Rottweilers ear a while back. It was the size of an eraser head on a pencil. It dryed up and then fell off after a few weeks. But I'm not 100 when it comes to making a diagnoses.
