Finding the underlying cause for your dog's hair loss is the best way to start treatment; therefore, I would recommend bringing your dog to their primary care doctor or a board-certified dermatologist. Different causes of hair loss include endocrine disorders, ectoparasites, fungal organisms, immune-mediated disease, and hypersensitivity (i.e. allergies).
