My Lovely Pets: Skin diseases and changes in dogs
Your dog’s skin and hair show his overall health, so it is important that he’s in good shape. There can be many causes – including external parasites, infections, allergies, metabolic problems and stress, or a combination of all of these. This article will show you what causes these problems and how we can treat them.
Excessive hair loss
We can prevent excessive hair loss with proper diet. In animals with allergies or sensitivity issues, it is often necessary to try different menus to find out which food is best for them.
Excessive hair loss can also occur as a result of various other causes or medical conditions:
- Parasites (fleas, lice and mites)
- Fungal or bacterial infections
- Food allergies
- Kidney, liver, thyroid and adrenal (Cushing) disorders
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Some medicines
- Cancer
- Immune system disorders
- Sunburns
Other skin problems
- Scratching, licking or nibbling on skin
- Scabies
- Skin redness and inflammation
- Hot spots where itching is more intense
- Round, scaly spots on face and paws

- Rashes
- Bloody or purulent wounds

When should we visit a vet?
When your pet starts to scratch, lick and/or bite excessively, a visit to the vet is recommended. The veterinarian will perform diagnostic tests to determine the true cause of the symptoms.
While some skin conditions in dogs require a visit to the vet, other diseases and symptoms can be alleviated or treated with natural antiseptics or medicines. We need to address the whole issue. There’s been a lot of talk lately about the medical benefits of cannabis.
Many animal owners and veterinarians have recognized the revolutionary effects of industrial hemp. Hemp products are completely safe and don’t cause side effects. Studies have shown that animals have their own endocannabinoid system, which is superior to the immune system.
Cannabinoids act directly on all systems in the body and have a positive effect on cells.
