The little black specks recent in a dogs coat like that are often some thing talked approximately as "flea airborne dirt and dirt" certainly flea poop. in spite of the undeniable fact that in case you do no longer see any seen fleas and you do no longer think of that's what that's...there is the thank you to objective and notice whether that's flea airborne dirt and dirt. Get a pair of the black specs of your dogs (the two with a comb or in spite of the undeniable fact that works for you) and placed them onto a paper towel then moist them....in the event that they turn dark reddish brown this is flea airborne dirt and dirt (the colour comes from the ingested blood). as a approaches by way of fact the yellow assets you communicate approximately i'm undecided...according to risk he replaced into exterior and have been given right into a plant that had some pollen on it? desire this facilitates.

Put this black dots on wet paper towel. If they soak red into the towel, they're flea dirts. They probably are - armpits are a common place to find them, as is belly and groin.
What have you been treating the dog with? If it's anything from a store, it won't work. Get some proper treatment from a vets, like Frontline.

It's probably some skin issue.
Flea dirt will wash off with a bath. A lot of flea dirt on a dog will actually cause the water that runs off of the dog to turn red.

It's staph, yeast, or some kind of skin infection/allergy. It's not normal, but I see it all the time as a groomer. Take a trip to the vet for a skin scraping, the vet can help you figure out the cause and treatment.

put some ointment on it. you can buy flea ointment at almost any pet store but if that does not work you can get some better stuff from a vet for low charge.
