  • Allergies and/or hair loss

    Posted on 2008/09/04 by Fether

    Every 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 Sarah

    My 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?!

  • Skin Rash with Black Bumps/Scabs

    Posted on 2008/09/14 by Christina

    My 1.5 year old golden retriever, Max, has a rash on his underside belly that extends down to his hind legs. There are red/pink areas that look like he's been itching. On his hind quarters there are some areas of black bumps that have the feeling of scabs. I put him on Sargeant's SENRYPRO XFC (which had scary reviews of pet seizures...and I promptly washed it off of him with dishwashing soap) and put the regular K-9 Advantix I usually bought on him about 5 days later. He has never had a skin problem and has always been in good health. I don't know what to do and need some guidance. I've attached a picture (hopefully it helps) and have more that I could send. Please...
