My 16yr old dog gets occasional hotspots when his fur gets long. Haven't been able to take him to the groomers so he is now licking a spot on his hip which will develop into a hotspot.
I have Isaderm for this and applying it will stop it but I have run out.
As I had it more than 12 months ago the vet won't repeat the prescription without a consultation which is £30.
This seems overkill as I would just be showing the vet a wet patch of fur which will eventually turn into a hotspot. They say it's to make sure that he is well enough to be prescribed Isaderm but then they offered me a telephone consultation for £30.
So can anyone recommend me something off the shelf for hotspots? I don't want to spend nearly £50.
