If he will let you, check him.
If there is any redness or other discoloration, you might want to get him to a vet. I heard; on the forums actually; that ointments and salves for humans can cause more harm than good if you use them on your pet(s). |
Thank you for both for your ideas.
I will def look up the seasonal alopecia its actually does sound very similar.
As for the fleas he has no problems with us checking him. he is on front line and wev kept a pretty close eye on making sure him & our heeler doesnt have any. It isnt discolord in any way just getting thin and patching, but we are taking him to the vet on tuesday. so we will seee...
