    Yesterday afternoon I saw a circular dip on his skull and I don’t know what caused it any idea he’s going to the vet on Tuesday for his shot and to check out what it is but I can’t stop thinking about what is wrong so can anyone tell me what they think it is thank you in advance.

    Hello, hope the vet gives you some answers. Sadly can’t see the picture. There is a post somewhere on here about how to post pictures...it’s a bit technical :)

    I can't help you with the bald spot, but I did want to highlight that only healthy dogs should be vaccinated. That is according to the vaccination manufacturers themselves. Many vets don't realise this and vaccinate everything that has a pulse. There is a chance that his symptom is auto-immune related (many skin issues are) or ringworm (immune system already challenged) and a vaccination really wouldn't be a good idea in that case. Do not let your vet vaccinate your dog until you've got some answers about what this is. If you want to, you can run a titre test to check his antibodies and find out if you really need to vaccinate anyway or if he's not fine....
