It's just a strip down his spine. I had him at the vet yesterday for shots and asked them about it, but the vet seemed perplexed. He asked me if someone had shaven him. No, no one has. I'm hoping maybe someone here has experienced this. Some info for you:
Dallas is almost 5 months old. We've had him for a little over 2 weeks. He had all of his hair when we got him. The things I've done that I'm thinking might be why: We have ticks in our yard so I did treat him with one of those liquids that you squeeze down their backs. I told the vet about this, though, and he said that could be it, but Dallas wasn't burned by it... His skin is fine. I also used human shampoo on him once, because he was really dirty and I ran out of dog shampoo.
I'm going to add a picture (I hope it's good enough to see... He just wouldn't be still while I was trying to get a picture of it!).

Has anyone ever seen anything like this? I just want to make sure that he's going to be ok.
Thanks,
Anna
