Doctor, can you check my dog’s eye? And that piece of flesh on its body? Thanks.
Skin problems around the eye and on the back may be from mites with bacterial infection; get a skin scraping. Eye-area lesions limit ointments, so the vet may use weight-based injections. Usually deworm regularly and keep the environment clean.
