I have an eleven year old shar pei. She recently tore her cruciate ligament and is on bed rest for the injury since it is only a 40% tear and because of her age/breed the vet and I are reluctant to put her through surgery.
Little bit has not been outdoors without a leash on since the injury, so I know she has not been in my florabunda rose. She has a sore on the back of her head. This is the second time it has appeared. Last time, I thought one of the cats nailed her. I cleaned it, put antibiotic on it, and it healed up. Yesterday, the scab came off, exposing red raw skin. Does this sound like a possible melanoma to you?
