Hi all

Can anyone tell me if this is normal pplease my 14 wk dobe has got 5 or 6 bump like spots on the crown of his head

they are not bothering him but would like to know if it's general acne or something eelse it definatly is not ringworm

It very likely is a staph infection and fairly common in Dobermans.  Sometimes they will go away on their own, and may come back.   Staph infections are very common in adolescent Dobermans. The treatment is antibiotics.  If it gets worse or is not going away, I'd go to the vet.

Gideon had them on his legs when he was that age. They went away on their own.
