Need some help please??!!
First topic message reminder :
I joined this forum as my fiance bought me a blue staff puppy last week and i need some help with something.
Shes 9 weeks old. When we bought her she had lil bald dots on her head and the back of her neck and along her back she seems to be loosing fur, she doesnt sit there itching and it doesnt look sore or dry her skin looks perfectly healthy its just her fur is falling out? Im kind of worried about this cause it doesnt look nice and it looks asif i dont look after her properly. I just wanted to know if this is normal or not? And if its happened to anyone elses puppy or if anyone can just tell me what it could be? Please, and also the man we bought her from told me she was 9 weeks but she is only small and everyone tells me she is younger than what iv been told. We took her to a vets 2 days after we bought her and got her first injection and her weight was only 3lb 5oz is this a normal size for a "9 week" pup or could she be younger than what the man told me? Thanks xx

Hi there. Our Judd had the same sort of thing. The fur on his head was fairly thin and he started getting welts under his fur on his back causing it to raise. Then eventually he started losing fur on his back. I had him to the vets about it and they took a skin scrape and found nothing. But they gave him some advocate anyway to see if it would clear it up. But it didn't and the welts would come back more severe. It didnt seem to bother him, but as you said, it looks like you dont look after your pet. Then a friend gave me a medicated shampoo called Vetadine. I washed him in it, and the next day it was heaps better. I repeated this every third day for about 2 weeks, and it was gone leaving his coat smooth and shiny
