My dog has a rash on inner thigh. What home remedies can I use?

Question

I noticed these marks on his inner thigh, groin area, they don’t seem to bother him, they are not swollen or bloody. What could they be, and what can I do at home to help? Thanks. Pet's info: Dog | English Mastiff | Male | neutered | 150 lbs

Hello and thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. I suspect these sores are from the skin rubbing against abdominal wall when Tucker is walking. It does happen to some dogs, particularly during warm months. Please, get a baby diaper rash cream or ointment and use it twice a day for 6-7 days. Make sure that you get a fragrance free one without vitamins or supplements (most of baby rash products are like that). If that doesn't help you will have to take Tucker to your vet to get a cream with an anti-inflammatory agent.
