| Losing Hair? My yorkie, Gabby, is losing all of the long thick hair on her head. I don't know why. She isn't losing it anywhere else on her body just her head. Has anyone else had this happen to their babies? Or do you have any ideas what it might be from? |

| cody has a spot on his left side a white patch where there is hair loss. when i got him he was on Nutro food. i then switched to Science diet.. I came to find out after a worthless vet visit. I changed his food to Royal Canin and his itching has stopped to minimal and the hair is growing back. I hope you can find out what it is. and your baby gets better! |

| Sometimes Tina tries avidly to bury things with her head, like her food or a toy she wants to hide. Maybe your pup is rubbing her head repeatedly? Watch for any behavioral changes. Hope it gets better! Oh, and my sister's lab gets "hotspots" on her head sometimes and loses her hair. Vet knows best!

| Thank you all for the help and ideas. I'm going to take her to the vet soon. It's so weird that it's just on her head. |
