Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Is it bc she is rubbing or scratching that area? Also, do her eyes look irritated and/or her lids / area surrounding the eye look too pink? She could have dry eye in the winter if the humidity is low and if it irritates the eye area.

| Good questions that were asked above. I don't know any reasons for this, but I wanted to bump this up to the top so others can see it..perhaps they can help, also.

| loss of hair around the eyes Thank you for your your soonest repsonse. Actually, I live in Cape Town, South Africa. I have noticed though that this winter is much colder than the last and she has lost alittle bit of hair on the muzzle. Her skin colouration is slightly pinkish, her eyes look normal. The only thing is that the hair loss is visible now than it was the past winters. Look forward to hearing your response. Is this a common thing amoung Yorkies? |
