Red bumps on chin?

Hi I'm Laura and my staffy is 3year old Buster, he has recently developed red lumps on his chin, just wondered if anyone knows what they are and what I should do to help him? Or if it needs vet treatment? Thank you

Oooo yes I would say a vet trip hun x

Thanks I thought so but thought I'd get some advice first

Let us know how you get on xx

My dobermanns got chins like that; it was diagnosed as teenage acne and did clear up although the hair never grew back. However, at 3 years old Buster is not a teenager so I've no idea what's going on here, so I'd check it out with the vet as well.

Do keep us updated! Thank you, and best wishes   

Aww poor buster hope the vet sorts it.

Thank you ache is all I could find online I will let you no what they say

Has he been anywhere different, eaten anything different?

does look like dog acne to me

No nothing I can think of, he's been his usual walks and he has a sensitive tummy so all he eats is chappie and dogs treats nothing human (vets advice)

It may also be an allergic reaction to something, have you tried giving an antihistamine ?

Hope Buster gets on at the vets ok, I don't really know what doggie acne is but could be an allergic reaction to something, maybe he has sniffed or licked at something whilst out on walks? Let us know the outcome xxx

mimi has that on her chin but less than that. vet said it was acne!
