I've researched and seen similar posts but none of the pictures seem close to the condition he has.
I've seen the diagnosis range from a wart, bug bite and even a tumor. So I plan on taking him to the vet tomorrow but wouldn't mind some insight. If I need to get it biopsied how much would that be?(ballpark). What do you think it is!?! The first pic is of a dot on Dec 21. The second is today with the pink dot on his upper lip. And the last is Riley Thanks Eric! |

Vet will probably call it staph infection - may be
Natural B-complex will help with recurrent problem. Do not use synthetic - natural will read B12 (methylcobalamin - not cyanocobalamin) and "no-flush" niacin (B3 - fights bacteria). My dog had this in summer, much worse though. Also treat topically with goldenseal tea - 1 cup boiling water per bag bring to room temp (no need to take bag out) add a splash of organic apple cider vinegar - goldenseal natural antibiotic and antibacterial as well the ACV antibacterial and will balance skins PH.

Glad you are going to the vet to find out what it really may be. It could be staph, could be a boil/furunculosis (has your dog ever had a fistula anywhere else?), could be lots of different things. You PROBABLY won't need to have a biopsy done.
Second dog: Pink spots on nose and lip. has something that almost looks like it?
