Ok so my little man is at it again. Besides his allergies and brain issues he now has deveolped this weird ear thing and i was wondering if anyone has ever heard of this....my vet says she has never seen anything like it and next thursday we go to surgery to get his ears biopsied...
Anyway it started with little nicks taken out of the side of his ears....we chalked this up to allergies and itchy ears as my vet has seen that before with allergic dogs. Anyway then his ears started shedding it's top layers of skin in some places but the weird thing is it is perfectly symetrical on both ears. there was one spot on the inside of each ear that was doing it then it did it to another part of the inner ear and now it has moved to the back...with the skin comes fur...it is not like a sunburn peeling and it doesn't hurt him if you pick it off-it almost seems like the skin that peels off after a blister but he hasn't had any blisters or anything-just a bubble of skin peeling off...it doesn't seem to bother him either but it is gross...my vet thinks it might be hormone related or an immune issue as with his other problems his is a good canidate to have an immune issue....
anyway like i said we go for our biopsy next week but wanted to know if anyone has heard of such a thing....
my poor little guy just can't catch a break...and my pocket book can't either. |
