"B" is for Birthdays, Bicycle Rides and Bald Spots...

Good evening Bulldog Domain!

It's been more than six months since my last post and quite a lot has happened.

1. Dwight turned six and celebrated the day with squeaky balls, car rides, and walks to the dog park for a long-relaxing sit on a park bench. Here's a picture of him on the big day:



2. He also discovered something he loves more than sitting on a park bench - riding in a trailer behind my husband on his bicycle. Here's a short clip of him on his very first ride earlier this summer:

3. And unfortunately it hasn't all been good news....Dwight has developed two rather large bald spots on this sides of his stomach. These spots are larger than my hand and the skin underneath them does not appear to be dry or scaly. Any recommendations on how to deal with them? He does not appear to be uncomfortable or in pain, but he has been very lethargic since they first appeared earlier this summer. Any advice is appreciated.

Hope all is well,

Ellen

Dwight is looking good!     That's awesome that he loves to ride in the bike trailer.

In regards to the bald spots...is the skin turning black underneath?  For a few years Buddha went bald on his flanks & for him it was seasonal flank alopecia.  Buddha got it on & off over the span of 3-4 years then it stopped.  If it's not that, I hope it's nothing serious!
