Coat and Undercoat Are Pink In Colour

DennisNJennifer Novice Mar 23, 2004, 4:08 AM Views: 1441 Coat and Undercoat Are Pink In Colour My puppy now is 5 moonths old . This 2 days i discovered not only his coat even his undercoat r pink in colour, not like the usual colour and one of his leg (near the knee area) too.Besides that, i also found some "wound" (not actually big but looks like scratches) spread in those area. I don't think he himself scatches it. I feel so worry. I bath him once a week and eats the Eukanaba. What's went wrong?

Are you referring to the colour of the "coat", as in the fur/hair of the dog or are you referring to the "skin" of the dog? ... When you say "patches" ... how big are the patches? ... Is your dog itching & scratching? ... Cheers PS ... As for the scratches ... just apply some iodine or peroxdide and if they are only scratches, they should heal ... Observe and check ...
