Lady has hypothyroidism. (Lady has everything.)

The classic signs are hair loss and lethargy. Being overweight and sensitive to cold are also signs. Lady had all four.

Here is a great article:

Hypothyroidism: A Case of Hypothyroid Disease in the Dog at ThePetCenter.com

It's very easy to diagnose with a T-4 panel. It's simple to treat, too, with just two pills a day. It's less than $5 a month to treat it.

Lady just has to have a thyroid panel done twice a year to make sure her dosage is still right. That's it. All her symptoms went away.
