thank you

my dad shows rough collies and i am sure he get his info on shows from Dog World - have you tried this?

I am writing to you as a fellow dobe owner / lover but i have a problem with my 14 month old bitch.  As an owner of two, have you ever had experience of hair loss and acne / lumps down their back???  The lumps do not bother her, at least she does not scratch at them but they are sore to her if you touch them.

On my fourth visit, the vet is sure it is an extension of their acne but the hairloss down her back really bothers me.  She looks fantastic from a couple of yards away but when she stands right next to you, you can see her skin down the centre of her back.

i have her on evening primrose and cod liver oil capsules together with dried food.  Do you have any suggestions?
