skin problems

Hi,
I'm a new member and i hoping that somebody can help me. I have a 2
1/2 year old female doberman and i've had her for just over a year.
She was a rescue dog from wood green animal shelter. The shelter did
their best to give us some history on her, but there is alot we still
don't know. Not long after we got her she started getting small lumps
all over her chest and some grew quite big. The vet removed them and
they were just fatty lumps and she was given antibiotics. They cleared
her skin up. She has always had dandruff and we've found that the very
mild dandruff shampoos clear it up, but recently she has developed
tiny blisters on her belly and at the top of her thighs.
Is there a particular skin problem that most dobermans suffer with ?
and if some what's the best way to treat it? At the moment the
blisters aren't bothering her and i don't know if she's just allergic
to something in the fields where she goes walking or if it is a more
serious skin problem. If anybody has any ideas i would be most
grateful.
Emma

Hi Emma It might be worth asking your vet to check for demodectic mange.....they take a skin scraping and it will tell immediately if that is the problem. If...

Hi, Thanks for the advice. The tiny blisters have thankfully gone now, without any need for the vet. We think she may have run through some stinging nettles...
