Just noticed this this morning... i think it's gotten worse since then though.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

I'm not a vet, but to me it looks painful and infected- if she were mine,I would take her to the vet asap.

Looks like lip fold pyoderma. Here is a link for you to check out.

Why was the photo link removed?? Here's a photo of Rusty's lip fold pyoderma. He's had a chronic problem with this. Thankfully with a combination of medications it's totally cleared up but he's had it twice.

To add to my original post:Murray's had this too, and after the initial episode which needed an antibiotic to clear it up, I started drying his mouth fold area after he eats, and wiping the area with Malaseb once each week- this has kept it from coming back. Just one more part of his daily routine, along with treating skin issues,ear issues, drops for chronic dry eye, etc.- it's good that he's a mellow guy and enjoys all the poking and prodding
