I am really getting worried about our Brandy. When we got her as a puppy about a year ago she had thin hair on her neck. Now she has pretty much no hair on her neck. Her hair on her back is thinning now and you can kind of see her skin. Even the hair on her ears is starting to thin. We have had her at the vets a few times and asked first about the thin hair on her neck as a puppy and then the more thining of her hair on her neck. He said it is genetic and some dogs are this way. Now her hair is thinning on her back and ears. Does she have allergies of some kind? Brandy is a beautiful mahogany standard Dachshund and it is killing me to see this happen. The vet had us put her on a fish oil additive in her food which is Taste of the Wild Lamb. The fish oil has definitely helped her hair to be smooth but has done nothing for the thining. She also has all these black spots on her stomach and chest which the vet says he has never ever seen before. Could they both be related somehow????? Not sure what to do next. I can't just let her lose all her hair. Suggestions??
