Hair Loss in Pomeranians.

19 17:13:27

Question
My 15year old pomeranian has lost hair round his neck and all over his chest and stomach. The vet told me to bath him in baby shampoo twice a week but that is not helping. Could you possibly tell me what is causing this, and what I can do to stop this occuring?

Answer
There are a lot of reasons why a Pom has coat problems.

He could have the dandruff mite which is easily transmitted
from animal to animal.  It could be his dog food...he
could have allergies...

So I would suggest changing dog food.  I use Eukanuba
Premium Performance small bites and Chicken Soup for the
Soul....also get some liquid fish oil and put a small amount on his kibble.

If this doesn't work take him to the vet.
