Puppy Pustules Can A Dog Have Puppy Strangles (juvenile Cellulitis) Without Ever Having Any Lesions Or Pustules?

Can a dog have puppy strangles (juvenile cellulitis) without ever having any lesions or pustules? - puppy pustules

More than a week, we noticed that our puppies Chorkie EXTREMELY had swollen lymph nodes in the neck, and brought her to the vet. Nothing seemed out of the norm and the vet gave him antibiotics. Later, he decided that he thought it was puppy strangles (juvenile cellulitis) and steroids, he said. She lost some hair on the neck and chest, even saw a month. There are, however, not much has been assumed that it was only the puppy hair. Shes been exposed to the drug for 8 days now, and I think that the lymph nodes are down slightly, but their ears seem to lose some hair. Also, says everything that I read that there are no bumps or pimples on the face, but she had no pain or swelling of one elsewhere. I wonder if it sounds like we are trying the wrong question, or if it is not unknown for a dog without choking wounds.

I'm afraid I do not know what is a Chorkie it? If you are not with your current vet, happy, why not visit a specialist.
