Hello!
I have recently bonded my two neutered boys. They have been together for about a month now. Bob is the dominant one. In the a.m. and p.m. Bob seems to require some reassuance from Z that he's the 'big guy'. He tries to mount Zeus, and Z scoots away. Sometimes, Bob gets a liitle of Zeus' hair. I check daily to make sure that Z doesn't have any sores from this. As of yet, I hadn't noticed any.
However....I was just wondering about fur regrowth.
As I was combing Z the other day, I noticed little black spot on his back (where Bob has been resting his head on him, and sometimes getting some hair). I saw hair growing in, and just thought it was regrowth.
But when I took Zeus and Bob to get there nails trimmed (I'm learning to do this myself) she said that that those were spots where Z had sores (from the bonding proces). SHe said the same thing happens when horses get sores. THe hair grows in differently (colorwise). But Z's regrowth is still black. She noticed a few on bob too.
There are no fresh sores on either bun right now.
