My 4 Month Rottweiler Has Scabs At The Elbow by obstead200(m): 5:03pm On Jul 20, 2015
My 4 month old male Rottweiler is a bit obese. He really eats a lot compared to his female counterpart. I really need to exercise him but I am limited by time. Unfortunately I cannot really regulate his food because they are both in same cage and I don't have the time to feed them 3 times a day. So I just put Enof food to last till nite time and then I rush off to work.
Recently I noticed He has what looks like scab on the elbows of his front legs.
Pls I need to know what to do about it. I don't want him to contact infections thru those scabs.

If he stays on concrete floor, then he would get those scabs you are talking of, to avoid this, tile where he stays, or put a carpet there (regular carpet or carpet tiles)

Go to the nearest Vet Clinic around you, Buy Benzyl Benzoate and Coopper Healing Oil. Clean the face of the scalp with spirit or warm water, apply benzyl benzoate every morning and cooper healing Oil at night for 7days the scalp will disappear. After that bath the dogs with taktic it's a chemical for external parasite on dog, bath the all your dog's with it and lay a carpet on the floor of their kenel the whole thing will clear.

Why keeping 2 ditties when you don't have time for them, it's cruel.

hey!
Dat is not fair. I do have time for them. I make out time to take them out every morning and clean d kennel. I personally prepare dia meal every morning (I don't feed them household leftovers), I also feed them at nite when I return from work. When ever I can squeeze in some time I exercise them briefly in the morning. What more do u expect of me? Shud I quit my job and be at home just to take care of them?
Smh for some pple sef. Pls offer me advise if u have one. I will appreciate that.

u are very correct. He stays on concrete floor. If I shud put carpet dia, u don't think d carpet will last 2 days. Maybe it is best I just tile it.

In my opinion, it's not a good idea to keep both in the same cage and feeding them together unsupervised could cause problems. You should have think of your lifestyle before getting 2 dogs.

u are still trading blames rather than giving advice. But it is ok Sha. I actually get ur point. Thanks for pointing dat out.
I was already thinking of separating them but I wanted to wait until they are a bit older. But with this overfeeding challenge, I think I will tell d guy coming to do the floor tiling in the kennel to partition the space for me. The space is really small but I guess it is necessary right now to separate them.

I will never blame you for decision you made for yourself , I don't know you nor what's going on with your life. I'm sorry if you feel I'm blaming you but I'm not . Separating them is the best option and stop free feeding them.

both parents (yeah I saw them) has all the qualities of rottweilers. so I can safely assume that the answer to ur question is yes.
however I never saw the grand parents and the ancestors so I am willing to make allowance for the possibility that there might have been some cross breeding along the line.
