Guest LindsaySF Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 The fosters lost patches of fur around the spots of skin that were affected, different isolated areas around the body. They didn't lose fur off their whole body. Some of that could be seasonal shedding though. I just placed a dog that was the fuzziest Grey I've ever seen during the winter. This summer she shed enough fur to make another dog, and the end result was a totally bald belly, butt, and neck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if it could be a combination of infection and shedding. But the pulling-out so easily isn't normal. He did come to us with much less hair though. He grew a nice coat in the winter and Spring. I have never seen shedding like this! He started the anti-biotics tonight. We'll see how it goes. Thanks everyone!
