Even if given in small amounts. Before giving to your dogs consult a veterinarian.

Richard my doxie's ears did that also. his was just one little patch on each ear. I was worried about it and a friend of mine that use to train dogs and show dogs. Told me it will grow back give it time. Well it is now slowly growing back in. I didn't think it was going to grow back in. She also told me that doxies are well known for dry skin. She told me next time I fry bacon to take a little bit (tsp. or two) and put it on his food. I have a red and white piebald named Rudy.
