@KhaiPan Pam and I are both stubborn opinionated people and without mutual respect, we'd be in constant battle. Instead, I love her. I watch her utter devotion to the dogs, to doing things right, to helping anyone who needs help. She isn't stuck in any idea... given proof and research, she'll reconsider. She is calming. 🙂 Knowing you have someone personally in your corner navigating this helps a lot. Glad you contacted her.
Patchy Hair Loss - any thoughts or suggestions?
-
Hey all,
Our 1.5 year old female red-and-white basenji has some patchy hair loss developing on her right side. At first I just thought it was an abrasion, and wasn't too worried about it, but I've noticed that the patch has gotten larger and a few smaller patches have appeared. Otherwise, she is a very healthy girl. I know there are many causes of hair loss in dogs, and I'll probably make her an app't at the vet soon, but I just wanted to throw it out there and see if anyone has had anything similar happen to their dog… any thoughts/suggestions?
I've attached a photo - not sure how well you can see the patches in it though.
Thanks!

First thing to do is see a Vet and make sure it is nothing medical, like mites… which they can determine with a skin scrapping at the office.... and work from there....
