Question
I gave my dog Sadie a bath and now she has red spots and larger lumps under her skin. The vet is closed and I want to know if there is anything I can giver her and what it is? I think its from the shampoo I used before on her and then I got the one I always used and it got worse. She's acting fine but you can see the bumbs. What should I do?

Answer
Hello Deshae, I was away for the laor day holiday.  If you still need a remedy, it would be to rinse her again with clear water.  You can use a liquid dish soap as dish soap is close to their PH balance.  Only use a small amount and rinse completely.  Give her skin a chance to settle down.  It good that she does not seem to be bothered by them.  From then on use mild shampoos or ones just for sensitive skin dogs.  Good luck and Thanks for asking, Cindy Lou :)
