[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 68776"] Chloe was tested for Thyroid last spring because she is overweight and everything we do (excercise, diet) she just kept gaining weight. There were no patches of hair loss at that time. She has been on Thyroid medication since April. She was checked again in May, and her T3 levels were at theraputic levels. When I called and spoke to the Vet dr. he said the levels were at the theraputic level but at a high theraputic level so he increased her soloxine. I am just concerned that it may not be allergies. That if it were a fungal infection all these drugs we have been giving her all summer wouldn't help. She has been constant with skin irritations, open sores etc. all summer. The anti-biotic clears up the infection and I don't notice again until she starts biting at an area....then it's infected again. But this hair loss patches are real noticable. She has such long thick hair, don't know how we would check her entire body unless we had her shaved. [/QUOTE]
