Why does my English Bulldog only have skin problems in the Summer time?
Cat with problem skin disorder?
Sammi asked:
I have a female orange tabby, who every summer develops a red rash from her ears down to her eyes. Some hair loss, but mostly just red with black specks. She doesn’t seem to have any discomfort from it & doesn’t scratch it.
She is mostly indoors with access to an enclosure. The enclosure is covered with hummingbird vines with blossoms.
Could she be allergic to the blossoms. They do attract birds, insects, bees etc. Her skin problems are only in the summer. By fall it’s totally gone.

Cracked asked:
its too early to go see a vet, today, just got kitten last night. My friend has 3 dogs, one always seems to have itching problem, always has a liter of kittens, so I took one. I’m noticing the kitten is itching a lot. Was wondering if you might pin point what it is… it’s a very small kitten 6 wks, kinda looks like some hair loss, not sure, because kitten is vey young and fluffy.

Dog has skin problem with hair loss?
laundromatic asked:
My dog has a skin problem on her back just before her tail and now spreading down the tail, and looks to be forming on the insides of the legs too. The skin is red and brown, some scabs, and some puffy/raised sores. The hair is thinning in these areas and where it has grown back it is short and coarse. It is very itchy and she bites at it and rolls on her back. This happened around the same time last year then went away. But its way worse this time and shes going to the vet, just wondering what disease or parasite this is?

Does anyone have a chow dog with skin problems which causes constant itching?
Tom I asked:
I have my second Chow and she has similar skin problems as the first one. I have found no answers to help with her constant discomfort. I have used baths, flea medications, brewers yeast, fish and flax oil, and have just started with garlic caplets which I have been told might ward off fleas. Nothing seems to last as the scratching and hair loss eventually continues. I would like to hear more from some of the readers. Thank you.
