| My 10 month old Mini Schnauzer has been developing these strange bumps on his skin. They are small, tiny bumps and some have a scab that picks off. At first we thought they might have been bug bites. They do not seem to itch or bother him or anything. But what started out as a couple bumps here and there have accumulated into many of them, mostly on his head. Our groomer wasn't sure what they were either. Does anyone have any idea what these bumps might be?

Hm, interesting idea. I did switch the kind of shampoo I use on him recently. Maybe I will try an all-natural product to see if it makes a difference.

You think maybe they are tumors? I know if you feel bumps you should let the vet check it out. Better safe then sorry.

I herd a song tonight on the radio, another girl sings about a boy. She sees his face in every space every room, and I know that if I turn around you won't be there. If I close my eyes, will you be there? I don't wanna lose your face, and I don't wanna wake up one day and not remember what time erased. I don't wanna turn around cause im not scared of what love gave me and took away and I don't wanna lose your face. I've got a photo of you in my bedroom and I hope it never falls. I hope I never lose that feelin' I use to get when you called. I don't wanna lose your face. - Taylor Swift

| Allergies? Maybe, but I would be iffy about that theory because where would the scabs come from? Unless they itched and your dogs themselves caused them. And you said yourself that they didn't seem to be itchy. Bug bites however don't necessarily need to itch all the time. Maybe a skin-scrape that a vet can do could diagnose a problem. Not sure though.

starry*boy (6/23/2008) You think maybe they are tumors? I know if you feel bumps you should let the vet check it out. Better safe then sorry.Discard the tumor idea, its many small bumps with scabs.

| My 11 week old Great Dane has the same bumps. I got my puppy at 7 weeks and he had them then. The breeder said that they were from the mothers milk and would go away when he adjusted to regular puppy food. Th | | | |
