Hello! We added a golden retriever pup to the fam a little over a week ago. When we first met/picked him out, he was fine. a week later we picked him up and he had a circular scab on his snout next to his nose. The breeder said it was just a nip from his litter mates. We took him to the vet to...

Hey y’all! This is my very first post. My golden’s name is Goober and he’s a very naughty one year old (will be 2 in November) who’s overcome intense parvo and is, as well, fixed. I was scratching his belly about an hour ago when I noticed these alarming black dots on his groin area/nipple...
