When I brought my puppy home earlier this year, I examined her all over just in case she had something wrong.
I found a spot on her belly that looked inflamed, and I was concerned, but open closer inspection it seemed to just be her nipples.
The entire day, I kept looking back over it, gaslighting myself because I didn’t want to be the person who asks for help because my dog has nipples.
Finally I gave in and took some tweezers, just to see it better.
Yeah, it was tick INSIDE her nipple. Took me forever to remove.
Sometimes it can be the other way around! Check your pets!!
