Daisy is a 3.5 month old English bulldog. She's suffered from allergies but has always been to the vet to be treated for them. She has had no recent flare ups so I know that this skin condition is not allergy related. About 8 months ago this started, at first I was unsure what it was so I had...

I took Rumble to a dermatologist last year for spots where he is missing fur. This happens once or twice a year. They tested his thyroid and that is fine. The dermatologist said it is not food related but is environmental. Well the dermatologist told me to do a bleach bath when the spots occur...
