My dog has developed hair loss/wtih pinpoint red dots on her back. She seems healthy and happy other

She was at the vet, at couple of months ago, with a clean bill of health. She, Lucky is an outside dog. She is bathed weekly and receives flea and tick treatment regularly. Any clues?

my friends dog had hair loss issues, it turned out to be a food allergy, to chicken.



Talk to your vet. They can help you.

I would talk to your vet.



It could be an allergy to one of the treatments that you give her for fleas. Some chemicals like that in Hartz products are very harsh. I dont recomend using them. So you may want to try something different.



She could also have some skin mites. That can easily be treated with ointment.



Have her checked out.

My cats have this going on. I took them to the vet and it turned out that they both had ring worm and the one also developed allergies. Is your dog itching alot? She might not have this problem but if she does then it could be easily treated. The vet gave me some medicated shampoo to bath them with 2x a week for 4 weeks. She said that it will also help with the allergies too. But if it doesn't completely clear up then she could give him a cortisone shot for the allergies. She also told me that I could give him benedryl. But there could be a number of things wrong like allergies...ring worm...mange...ect. Also, what type of dog shampoo are you using? This could be irritating her skin. But I am not a vet. I would deffinitely get her back into the vet asap. Hope it's nothing serious, good luck!

Its prolly HOT SPOTS - like a light heat rash for dogs - its nothing serious but you need to get her to the vet and get some antibiotics and cream .... healthy dogs get this all the time - like healthy humans get a heat rash. Hope all goes well

It may be an allergy. Or it could be dry irritated skin and she is chewing at it which aggrivates it. I have a dalmatian who used to lose hair in patches do to some dry skin. I started giving her fish oil, in her food ( could tell a difference in about three days not kidding) and now she looks great.
