losing coat

Question
My 3 year old collie is losing patches of her coat. Have treated her for fleas,mites and tics and no sign of any of them tho it does look like she has had bites and continues to be losing hair on her back.She is constantly rubbing herself under a table as tho itching the area but not sure what else it could be???


Answer
You should take her to the veterinarian for an examination.  It could be allergies (food or inhaled) or a thyroid problem.   If she has even ONE flea, that too could be causing the problem.  Most over the counter flea products do not work.  I recommend ADVANTAGE from the veterinarian for flea bite allergies.
