QuestionHi,
I adopted a French Bulldog approximately 1 month ago. He is 4 years old and just wonderful. Very docile. I also have a Boston Terrier who is one year, 4 months old. I have had him since a puppy. They both get along great. They love to play. However, when the Frenchie plays he must be biting my Boston's neck. I know this is how dogs play, but I have noticed that there are many scabs on my Boston's neck. I know this is from the Frenchie nipping him. He never cries and they just keep playing. What can I do for this? I am so concerned. They really do like each other and get along so well. I will be going to the vet in another week or so (for my Boston's yearly exam) and just wanted to know if maybe there is a cream or a salve I can put on these bumps. Thanking you in advance. Annette
AnswerHello Annette - Oh, how rough pups will play!!! Yes, I have some ideas for both your kid's health and wellness:
YOU can put some Tea Tree Oil spray on the scab areas. NuVET sells a wonderful Tea Tree Oil Spray / It is called " hot spot spray" but it is for any kinds of scabs, pimples, rashes and scratches...
I will give you the link below for ordering : Can't be found in any stores:
Also, at night you can apply some vitamin E to the area - just pop a Vitamin E capsule and put a small amount of the gel/liquid onto the areas you were mentioning. Do this every night for about 4-5 days.
Messy but it works good!
The two kids should be on NuVET Plus - The BEST Immune System Booster and Vitamin in the USA... Loads of Bostons and Frenchies are on NuVET Plus - sold by breeders for a lifetime of health and wellness. Many pups go home on NuVET Plus at 6 weeks old.
It will help prevent arthritis, premature aging, skin and coat problems,....Keeps your kids healthy and away from the VET office.
Here is the link for NuVET Plus Wafers - YOU need 1 per day per kid.

Look for the Tea Tree Oil - hot spot spray / this heals the skin.
Also, I would like to see them getting some Salmon Oil each day - Just 1 teaspoon per day for each dog...Mix into the food 1 x per day.
Great for the coat and joint health...
