Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

I rescued my dog Max 2 months ago and when I got him he had a scab on his nose that they told me was from sticking his nose through the fence. now the skin is healed and nice and pink but no hair is growing. does it just need more time or is it not going to grow back?

more than likely it won't grow back but don't feel bad that is just a good thing that should make him all the more special and others tease those they are jealous of.

See the vet

It is probably scar tissue, which means it will not grow hair.

Paint a happy face on his nose and make sure he gets his fair share of peanut butter! He will be okay!



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

There is a good possibility it won't grow back. Scars do that sometimes. Just love him anyway.

It's a scar? So it may not ever grow hair back there. Time will tell.



EDIT: So your family continues to be emotionally abusive to a dog that you rescued from previous abuse? Have you pointed this out to them? If so, and they continue to do it, I wouldn't allow them around the dog anymore. What a bunch of brain dead idiots.

it probably won't grow back. every time there's an injury where the hair grows, it never grows again. that happens to humans also.

It won't grow hair (unless you want to have some expensive plastic surgery done by a vet).

it might not grow back



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

Probably not, hair usually doesn't grow thru scar tissue.



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

there's nothing wrong with that.



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

Of course! the hair would be back on where your dog got wound.

Give it a little more time....sometimes trauma causes the hair to grow back slower than normal....then again, it may never grow back....hopefully it won't matter one way or the other to you, so long as he's healthy and happy! :)



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

It is possible good old Max might have damaged the follicles on that spot, creating scar tissue. In that case, likely the hair will not grow back.



Thank you for rescuing...and caring!

Scar tissue is often to dense to grow hair through... It will give him character.

Possibly needs more time but if it is not going to grow back it may need sun protection during the summer. I am NOT sending you up, a friend of mine had a sun-burnt dog after it was clipped in the Summer. it is sad when this happens and they don't deserve it

i think u should get it time and if it dont grow back soon go ask the doctor or leave it alone!!!



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

soooo?! It's a memory, just make up a funny story about it to tell people. Ignore it. It's not on the outside that matters but whta's on the inside.

Its almost like getting a cut on your scalp or eyebrow. When scar tissue develops, it halts hair growth in the affected area.



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

Just like human scars, there is a good chance Max will not grow hair back on his muzzle. Most likely is that he destroyed the hair roots since he apparently kept re-injuring the area by sticking his nose through the fence. Other then being a cosmetic issue, it shouldn't make much of a difference to Max whether the hair grows back or not. I would keep on eye on the area in severe heat or cold so it doesn't sunburn or frostbite.

it needs way more time if it doesn't heal in 10 months see a vet.

It may eventually grow some, but scar tissue is different than regular skin. I once had a motorcycle wreck and lost a lot of skin on my forearms, It eventual healed up ok, but you can still see where it happened years later because there are no freckles where the wounds were, although my arm hair did come back slightly. Your dog may get some hair back eventualy tho, it hasnt really been that long, it takes awhile



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

Probably the best thing to do is to punch Max on both sides, of his face, hard, until scabs appear.



This way, he will have a wound in 3 spots on his face, making the wound on his nose much less noticeable.



Hope this helps!

i tink it depnds on wat age the dog is nd wat breed..



my friend dog is a scottish terrior nd she got in 2 a fite wit a cat nd the scares on her face cleared up fine..i hope the same 4 ur dog!!!!...lol

Scars may grow fur back very slowly, if ever. It will take some time to tell if the fur will ever grow back.



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

It's just a scar. The hair probably won't grow back. No big deal, though... It shouldn't cause any other problems, so don't worry.



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

If it has recently healed, it could possibly just not have grown hair back yet, but most likely it is scar tissue and hair will not grow there even with rogaine!!! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but all you can do is wait. So what if he is missing a bit of hair, don't let that stop you from loving him, because it won't stop him from loving you.



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

If it's still pink, it may just be too soon for hair to have grown back, the skin has only just healed.



However, be aware that hair often does not grow on scars on animals! Not a big deal, it'll just be part of his uniqueness! So long as the wound's healed, that's the main thing.

might not grow back ever. fiona is a rescue dog, and she had a large scar between her eyes and two small ones on her forehead since we got her. since she was abandoned, we have no idea how it got there, and its been two years. the vet says its just scar tissue



people always ask about them since shes a pit bull they assume shes a fighter. they dont hurt her, she doesnt notice them at all, so if shes ok with having naked spots, im ok with it too.



Dog has an old wound on face that won't grow hair!?

I had a dog who got a scar on her face from a fight - it never grew hair back.
