My 1 year old Westie has areas on her sides, hips and thighs where she has lost her hair and the skin is red and flaky. They don't seem to bother her too much, but they are defiantly hotter that the rest of her body. We have changed everything from her food and bedding, and no change. We are thinking its hot spots but the vet seems reluctant to give us any diagnosis. Can you help?

Allergies and/or hair loss
Posted on 2008/09/04 by FetherEvery year about this time (early fall) my cat and dog both get really itchy and start to lose their fur. I mentioned it to my vet last year and she said it's not fleas but some sort of allergic reaction. I was unsuccessful in the medication she subscribed, they stopped itching several weeks later and hair grew back a few months later. Any suggestions on an over the counter medication?

Scratching and lossing hair
Posted on 2008/09/10 by SarahMy 5 month old kitten as a microchip implanted between her shoulders. I noticed today she's been scratching a licking at that same spot and now the hair right there is gone. Could her microchip be bothering her? And if so, what should I do?!
