white spots?

mdcougall Apr 26, 2008 08:28 AM

i had another thread about this but it was like a month ago so its probably gone. i figured out how to get a picture on here so here it is. This is Mac, he is shedding in this picture so he looks kinda ugly. he has now finished shedding but those white spots in the picture are still there they are just not as bad. what are they? what should i do?
thanks!

I'm obviously speculating here...They could be scars from burns (or who knows what). Or they could be a skin infection of some kind. Your best bet would be to let a vet have a look. If it's scars, there's not a lot to do. If it's an infection, the vet can figure out what kind (fungal, bacterial, etc) and prescribe appropriate medication.
