Question
My White boxer is 2 years old and has been losing his hair and his skin becomes raw underneath, and also his eye stays irritated. He does not seem to be feeling sick or grumpy. Is this something that i need to worry about? If so, what can i do to help?

Answer
Hi Joey,
Yes it is something to worry about. A vet visit is in order asap to prevent secondary infections. Be sure and ask your vet to check his thyroid. Allergies are common in boxers as well. Keep in touch and let me know what the vets says, I may can offer more information after the vet's diagnosis, thanks so much for your question.
