it started after about two weeks after having her, a scab appeared on her head and then it spread to all over her head and then her fur started to fall out on the top of her head. after a short while it spread to her front and back legs and her tail. it has grown back on her head now but is still hasn’t on her legs or tail, which are scabby now and it looks horrible. we have been to the vets so many times and spent so much money doing so. shes had skin scrapings, treated for mites, fleas, many injections, has been on antibiotics for months, and we have a special shampoo that we have to wash her with once a week. her fur grew back pretty much completely once but then fell out on her back legs and tail again. nothing seems to help and i wondered if anyone else’s dogs have had any problems like this and what they did to help it.
she is on a mixture of wet and dry food not really a set brand it changes

I have an 11 year old black king charles spaniel and for a few years now he has had a rather severe skin problem where he itches and stratches his skin whilst ripping his fur out. He has been to the vets many times but with no solution as to what the problem is, he has been on special gluten-free diets with no success. Any ideas as to what the problem might be?

Our vet told us it was very common for blue dobies to have skin problems and that there was nothing we could do for her. I buy my shampoo at the vet and she eats well and takes vitamins from the vet also. She has a terrible odor and bathing barely helps plus the vet told me not to bath her too often but the smell is so bad if I don’t. She is 10 yrs. old and has had this her entire adult life. She doesn’t have much fur left and has alot of problems with tooth tartar. Her nails are very brittle. Does anyone have any ideas?

Ms. FairyLove asked:


My dog is a 10 year old Chow / Rottweiler mix and recently he has started to get black looking, scabby patches under his fur, and when you pet him or brush him, small clumps of hair with skin attached fall out, does anyone know what might cause this, or how to fix it? He also seems to have some new black patches around his nose. Please help.
My dog does have a flea allergy, he has to get frontline and coritisone injections each year, but usually the only reaction he has from the fleas is he digs a hole in his hip, thats usually how we know it’s time to get him started on the meds. And I know we should take him to the vet, and we will, but the last time we took him in for a very substantail weight loss, the doc pretty much seemed to brush it off as him getting older and said to limit his protein, and now, not much later this is happening, don’t know if I might need to find a new vet. It’s common sense he needs to see a vet, was just hoping someone on here might have some answers or ideas for us.
