I keep her hair in a ponytail everyday. But she scratches it out often. I use bands for babies that don't pull or break hair (so they say)...but I'm wondering now if I should just puppy cut her with no ponytail...but I reeeeeeeally love her ponytail!
HELP US PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! :] |
Did they do a skin scrape for demodex mites as demodex sometimes affects the head and around the eyes?
With skin and allergies i recommend working with a dermatologist. I will pull up my link of info on allergies as have been dealing with this with a dermatologist for 5 years now
