Question
I have a beautiful 4 year old black female german shepard.  Recently she has starting scratching a great deal and when I brush her daily hair is coming out and leaving bald spots.  I am really concerned.  What should I do?  Also, where the hair is falling out she has a great deal of dander.  I will appreciate your response very much.

Hi Nancy
This could be a food allergy?  Did you try changing her kibble to a new better brand maybe?  or, one for allergeries.  Put some aloe cream or antibitoic cream bought cheap at a dollar tree or store, i use it alot.  If she absolutely has not fleas which causes this alot hot spots they are mostly called, then it has to be coming from food, chemicals u clean with and she rolls on the floor, gets into her skin.
go to my web site on the front page click on springtime.inc, type in dogs in their search and read when Fresh Factors do for a dog.  I use them on all my Shepherds plus Bug Off, I have no vet expense for it keeps the skin healthy, shiny coats, less shedding, good for joints, wonderful products for dogs and horses only.  I never use flea vials in my dogs and they do not have a flea or tick with Bug Off.  This is what is causing so many problems in dogs too much junk.
Try some cream rubbed well into the spots, do not bath the dog, Shepherds are no maintenance dogs.  Just brush and dab with a cotton ball perxoide to clean the areas, then rub in aloe cream or ant. cream to promote healing and hair growth and try to buy a small bottle of Fresh Factors, Dr Ron researched this product and told me and I swear by them.   I am not a dealer nor sell them I only use the products and can recommend them.

Kind Regards
