How can I treat my dog's hair loss?

My dog has hair loss. What could be the cause? How can I treat my dog's hair loss?

1 Answer

Different causes of hair loss include endocrine disorders, ectoparasites, fungal organisms, immune-mediated disease, and hypersensitivity (i.e. allergies); all of which can be treated with medications prescribed by your primary care doctor or a specialist. I would recommend bringing your dog to their primary care doctor or a board-certified dermatologist to determine the cause and prescribe proper treatment.
