Hi everyone,

We noticed today that our 10-week-old female puppy has a large spot on her vulva. It doesn't seem to be bothering her at all.

I've attached a photo below - has anyone else dealt with this before?

    Hi everyone, I’d like to get your opinions on something. I’ve just noticed that my 4-month-old female puppy has a swollen vulva and some small white spots. I’m really worried about it – has anyone seen this before or does anyone know what it might be? I’ve attached a photo just below.

    The vet’s verdict: it was just a small pustule that she’s popped. The plan for the coming week is to clean it three times a day and apply antibiotic cream.

    Got a vet appointment tomorrow evening, plus it looks like it’s swollen up today.

    That looks like an abscess, you should see your vet.

    Thanks for the replies, we're going to head over to the vet's.

    Take her to the vet. My dog had that with her anal glands and it was an abscess—not that I want to worry you, of course...
