just discovered an injury under Bailey's chin on the right hand side. it has scabbed over and i reckon it must be a couple of days old. i have no idea how he got it. don't think he's been fighting with Lola as there has been no signs of scuffles. only thing i can think of is that he has caught on something in the garden? it's about half inch long and looks as if it was quite a deep cut but like i said it has got a good scab on it. not sure if i need to do anything and just keep checking to make sure it heals properly

Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about.
