Need honest opinions on puppies health issues

Aries isn't doing that well. Hes got sores on his mouth and his ears, the doc thinks its mange mites. So, I separated the dogs, (they do have their own Kennels, but they do play with each other)...

So, i been giving him his meds (3 months old btw) and when I am looking at him, i noticed what looked like a cherry on the side of his eye.

(thats my cloud storage device, you can see the pics if you click the link)

A link to a vid of him of me rubbing his ears, making him feel as best as i can

hes geting a vet check Saturday, but i am going to stop in, or call them tomorrow and see about us coming in tomorrow...instead of saturday at 9am
Hes my first pup, i did study to be a vet tech, but i am forgetting everything

Hi there

I'm sorry to hear your puppy is having problems. I can't see the pictures but do you think it is 'cherry eye'? If so, here is a link with some information:

Good luck at the vets.

From what i read, it don't sound like a cherry...sounds more like a pimple, or a tumor growth

They worked it is still hard to tell from the vid and picture.
The lump on his eye may be an ulcer.
Your vet when you when you go will know and how to deal with it. Good luck with it and keep us updated.
He is a gorgeous boy.

the red marks on my hand is from him trying to scratch his ears.

Anyway, he is very and very loyal, rarely wonders off, even in public places. Just wondering if hes going to be worse because i don't want him to suffer. I have a ferret i am about to put down, shes been alive for 10 years and if Aries is going to beable to continue to train for service?

thats what hes mainly for is a service dog, pet first that way we can bond better then service.


Can't forget to say Thanks.

Anyone have any opinions on dog insurance?

My apologies if I am getting the wrong end of the stick here but are you considering putting a 3 month old puppy down because he has mange mites and a little lump on his eye and before he has been seen by a vet for the lump?

Only if i have no other choice. Last time i put a pet down she was riddled with tumors and cancer. The one i am putting down, is when she shows signs of being too sick to continue.
I am asking because i dont want to look for another dog to bond with. I love aries and the laws are so picky on service dogs. If he cant be a service dog, thenhes a forever homebound pet. I dont want another dog, i want him to be the one. Sorry if it seemed rude or harsh, but i look at it like this. If i am unable to get up and i will only decline, put me down. If i can thrive and be useful either as a pet or service then i will starve to help him live a full life.using my phone for communication. Went to rub his ears before he did any damage itching them
