Puppy making bald spot/sore on older dog

Puppies are wrestling and my little pug keeps biting the bull mastiff puppy over the eye.

Now there is a bald spot which looks sore. Will the hair grow back or will there be a scar??






Hi Marilyn
Difficult to say for sure!

If he's bitten down hard enough to break the skin repeatedly, there could end up being a little scarring.

However generally the hair will grow back over minor injuries like this. If the area looks red, hot or sore though I'd recommend having your vet look at it to make sure no infection sets up.

Best of luck with your dogs.
