Dr. Elizabeth · Accepted Answer

Leo could have this rash for many reasons. It can be related to allergies of any kind, flea bites or a primary bacterial infection. You need to prevent him from licking the lesions with an Elizabethan collar. You can start him on an omega-3 fatty acid supplement for pets and you can wash the lesions once a day. If they do not start improving within one week or if they get worse at any point, have him examined by the veterinarian.
