seasonal alophiea

Excuse the above spelling I have no idea if its correct or not, but u get the idea lol. Just wondered if anyone else's dog gets this. Every year since kaos has been a pup he gets this at this time of year. All the hair falls out on either side of his body, he looks a right state! This year for the first time its not been as dramatic and I would say its more a noticeable thinning as opposed to totall hair loss. It doesn't bother him in the slightest, isn't red or itchy, he just looks a state! It starts around Feb, at its worse in march and starts growing again in April and back to normal by may! Very strange!

I did do some research on it a while ago, so I'll see if I can find my notes for you. From what I remember, it doesn't affect the health of the dog - it's mainly just aesthetic.

Yea Ive spoken to vet about it and yes its purely aesthetic. Just wondered if anyone else had experienced it :-)

Not directly, I'm afraid. Somebody here might have, though!
