Praveenkumar Jadhav

10-year-old Pom male, having sub-cutaneous petechial and echymotic hemorrhages, it starts with red patches which turn into blue and then black. It started 4 days back, initially owner thought it to be something sporadic, but in 4 days has covered a large part of the body, now in the mouth too. Interesting part is dog is normal in all other aspects, eating, activity, not scratching, or anything.

Joseph Cyrus Press a glass slide on the lesion and see if it blanches. highly unlikely, this dogs needs steroids high doseas and aspirin; when you collected the blood from the vein, did you have difficulty for the blood to clot.

Jitendra Kumar same thing happens in case of humans as well without any infection........but age is the factor and the doctor says its because of high blood pressure and diabetes along with some cardiac problem.......
