For some unknown reason, NiceDog (5yo greyhound), is rapidly losing all the hair on the back of her thighs - she'll have a bald backside soon at this rate! Her skin looks fine, no signs of infection or irritation; nothing stressy has happened (Xmas was nice and calm); there have been no changes to her diet, and it's not caused by rubbing off on her coat or the way she sits/lies. We've had her for 6 months and her coat has been lovely until now, so it's puzzling me like mad why this is happening (although it doesn't bother her one bit!). I know it's not uncommon for some breeds to have bald bits, but any ideas on how to encourage her hair to regrow - any natural supplements or lotions I could use?
