Puppy With Warts..... (vet, skin, breed, mixed)

[sasie123]

My puppy is a mixture of Bichon Frise and Shih Tzu. The most loved dog in the world by our family.

I recently discovered that he is growing some warts on top of his head, and my neighbor said that those mix-breed dogs develop warts. Does any one has had similar experience? How can I obliterate them? Thanking you in advance.....

The bumps may or may not be warts. Take you dog to the vet and find out for sure!

Agree a vet visit is in order. It's unusual for a puppy to have any kind of growth (it's got zero to do with being a mixed breed). Growths in older dogs are quite common but not on a puppy which is why she needs to see a vet.

This is a good article to read on what might be causing those bumps

As others have already suggested, a vet visit is in order. Good luck
