bleeding on the skin

My rottweiler is bleeding on face next to ear, it’s itchy and am concerned i don’t know what is wrong with her.

Hi Colette
I’m afraid it’s impossible for me to tell why your Rottie is having this problem, there are a bunch of possibilities and you need a professional hands-on evaluation to determine which is the cause.

It’s possible that she has a ‘hot-spot’, this is usually caused by canine allergies. She could have injured herself, have an infection….. as I said it’s not possible for me to be sure.

I can only suggest that you keep the area clean and dry and have her examined by a veterinarian as soon as you can. If the area is swollen, oozing pus, or feels hot then she may have an infection and antibiotics will be needed.

I wish you the best of luck and hope that she’s doing much better soon.
