Hello My puppy has got this green color pimple/boil on his armpit. Please let me know if it is of concern.
Dr. Tajunnisa M
That looks like an engorged tick. Ectoparasitic control in pets is very essential. Use Fiprofort plus spot on (select based on body weight) along with Erina EP shampoo which can be used before applying spot on.

Hello Doctor Does the tick need to be removed manually?
Dr. Tajunnisa M
Yes! You can use forceps or tweezers to remove it. But be careful and make sure whole tick comes off and the mouth parts don't remain in the skin.

THEO’S REAL STORY! 🫶
I have recently shared an adoption appeal for Theo my dog and received a lot of backlash. I would like to clarify a few things :
1. Theo is my family and he is a rescue. He was abandoned at a kennel and was in a very bad condition and suffered from ear infection and other issues.
2. My family has had Theo for 1 year now and we LOVE him truly and I can never think of abandoning him.
3. I have been approached by multiple people including unethical breeders but I will ensure that Theo doesn’t end up homeless or with the wrong people and that is why I put up a post here.
4. My family condition isn’t that great at the moment and im leaving for my higher studies. He is a dog that needs constant attention love and affection like every dog and I am sad that im not able to provide that to him and hence putting him up for adoption.
When I rescued him I didn’t think of anything else except him getting better, he is not a SHOW OFF dog he is my best friend. Thanks for everyone reaching out!7 likes•2 comments•181 views
