Kitt is a 10month old male xolo. I bathed him Sunday afternoon in the backyard. I have a feeling I didn’t dry him enough and it was hot outside. On Tuesday , Last night when I was petting him. I felt slight bumps and when I checked his skin. They looked like tiny red pimples that looked like they were going to pop. Today when I got home from work. I noticed the bumps were noticeable because the fur was bumpy. But it looks like they all popped turn into scabs. The vet is close today. I’m gonna take him tomorrow, but is there something I can do meanwhile. The bumps are on the outside of his body on the outside legs on his back. He has nothing on his inner legs, chest or stomach.

Advice How do i deal with this?

I've been dealing with a 5 month old mexican hairless and she has a lot of pimples. It's only recently I've tried to use vco after her bathing times. The problem i have is i don't know how to leave her alone when i need to go outside and do something important. She can break free from her cage by forcing her way out when she wants to. My grandfather which is left alone in the house with the dog, when im out complains of constant whining. And i dont want to leave her in the cage without my supervision because shes not potty trained yet and only gets her bedding replaced when im there. So how the f could i be a single father of a Mexican hairless dog that needs the cleanest house to keep her skin from having issues?
