Coat Loss Problems











There is a coat loss problem in Pomeranians called SHLS (Severe Hair Loss Syndrome). It is also known as Black Skin Disease. It occurs mainly in males. They may have profuse puppy coats with no guard hairs, which does not shed. When the puppy coat sheds, the coat does not grow back. Another version of the same condition happens at a later age, with a normal appearing coat that slowly starts to thin, starting at the back of the thighs and buttocks and moving up the back. Ask to see the parents of the dog you are buying.My mother is 80 yrs. . any she has a cute dog name brown-eye and hair the problem is loss of hair.?
Could be age related, could be seasonal allergies, could be mange, could be allergies to fleas. Too many possiblities to say. If finances are the main factor for avoiding a Vet, calling a local SPCA or Animal Control place may provide a reference to where low cost or in some cases no cost Vet care is available. If there is some fear of her dog being harmed by the Vet, she may need help to ease that fear and get the dog help. No one on here can tell you what is wrong with your dog because even a Vet on here would have to examine it!
wow, what a confusing question. I think you're telling us that the dog (not your 80 year old mother) is losing its hair. The answer really is, take the pup to the vet. (Sorry, Mom.) If money is a problem, call your local shelter to find out if any vets in the area provide services on a sliding scale for seniors. Perhaps Brownee is allergic to something in his food or environment. If there's anything new, try changing it back.





Good luck.
