Re: [boxer lovers] Boxer's fur falling out in patches.

 

For some reason I had not gotten the original post on this subject.  However, there is another, besides the Seasonal Alopecia and HypoThyroidism that could be the culprit, which are fairly easy to clear up.  That is Cushings Disease, and yes, for sure, hair just falls out in big clumps with that.  It is a dreadful disease.  Do a search and you'll find a lot of pages on it on the vet sites.

 just give a teaspoon of coconut oil per 10 pounds of dog, or you can give a table spoon per 30 pounds. Start with about 1/4 the recommended dosage and build up to the recommended level over 3-4 wee

Hi All,

I have two Boxers, Bella-7, Leo-5.  We have noticed Leos bald patches recently, he looks like a brindle instead of a flashy tan.  Bella has had this problem for a few years.  Have had her skin tested, it comes back fine.  The skin is healthy, just lacking fur.

Has anyone had this problem before?  Is it a boxer thing?

Is there something we can do to get the fur to grow back?  We think it might be lack of Vitamin D during the winter months.

TIA
