Hi! I am new to the group. I have a question for chihuahua owners who
have knowledge concerning chihiahua health problems.
This summer my long coat chihuahua, Luna, went a few days without her
interceptor dose. She came in contact with fleas and had an allergic
reaction.She developed little sores that look like pimples on her
underbelly, neck and leg shanks. They also apperared on her spine.
She was constantly scratching and licking herself. I took her to our
vet and was given an antibiotic, prednisone, and prescription dog
shampoo. It helped but I noticed hair loss under her neck and on the
back along the entire length of her spine. I had her tested for
thyroid, the initial test and then the more expensive test. Both
turned out negative.
I, also, changed food for a few months and as soon as I saw the problem
I went back to her original food.
I am very concerned and feel I need to go to a dog dermatologists.
Have any of you had these problems in the past?
