Title: pus pockets Post by: tsutxn09 on December 11, 2010, 10:07:06 am One of my dogs has pus pockets all over his belly and even some on his sides in the hair. I have never seen this before and have no idea what it could be. He isn't acting like himself and is limping pretty bad but i think he's limping cause he got hit real hard by a big barr hog 2 nights ago. Any advice is appriciated.

It sounds a little messy but it worked for me good luck. Not sure what the cause was. Try this site see if it helps.

The first thing i though was fire ants but some of the pus pockets are the size of a dime. I've never seen a ant bite that big.
