i have a staffy pup 11 months old energetic and seems to be in good health, but seems to lose a lot of hair from her chest, rear legs and from behind her ears, All worming and flea treatments up to date. Any ideas?

Hey Diane. Are the areas scaly, red, or irritated looking? Is she itching any? This will help me figure out what's going better. Thanks!

Answer
Hey Diane. I would recommend bringing her to the vet for a quick exam. It may be nothing, but some immune & skin disorders cause their hair to fall out. Some dogs just have thin hair in areas, but just to be sure I would bring her to the vet. Let me know if I can do anything else to help. Thanks!
