| spurga's owner Hello everyone please help!!!!! SPURGA my dog has a black spots on stomack and also white hard dry flaky spots on it's back and as soon as I would scratch it it will start to come off with it's hair and bleed, also hair loss bad coat smell and crazy itching. I changed her food to royal canine for yorkees she's one. I gave her flea medicene frontline, before it gone so bleeding and bad I took her to vet they give clavamox and it get better then it will start again as soon as the medicine came to end, so then another antibiotic forgot the name it starts from C anyways I do not want to keep experimenting her with various antibiotics I'd rather find real problem. By the way vet checked for mites didn't have it and alsogave infection treating shampoo, that didn't help. Thank You! |

| Does your baby have fleas ? It could be flea allergy. Have you tried a hypoallergenic food ? |

| Could it be skin allergies? My Westie has bad skin allergies and can end up with skin infections if he scratches too much. He has both seasonal allergies and food allergies; he's doing well on Blue Buffalo Wilderness version - Duck. We also give him the occasional OTC Claritin or Zyrtek and use a skin soothing cortisone shampoo. He has been on antibiotics and a medicated shampoo when his skin got really bad.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I would change her food back if this started after switching her to Royal Canine. Some dogs can be allergic to different things in the food. I hope you can find out what is causing this.
