Winston developed some pretty nasty (huge!) bumps on his chin last spring.  I made sure I changed to stainless steel bowls, disinfecting them each day.  But it didn't help.  We eventually took him to the vet, and he was diagnosed with some environmental allergies- Just a few days of Prednisone (maybe 2 before dramatic results) made a huge difference!!!
