    I’ve been to two different vets and also a vet dermatologist. The next step would be a skin biopsy to determine if there is some type of hereditary disease involved. My frustration at this point is are the stomach issues and skin issues related in any way or are they two completely different problems. She does not really scratch at herself, has never had ear issues, she used to lick at her side where the scabs were but after taking the antibiotic which I guess was taking care of the bacterial skin infection, she doesn’t do that anymore. I have not received a diagnosis yet. They are not sure why she keeps losing her fur or why her stomach keeps acting up. I’ve starting give her a probiotic and am going to switch shampoos to something to treat subhorreic dermatitis. (Both through my own research, which to vet said would be good. Just wondering why they didn’t suggest it themselves in the first place.) Maybe it’s time to switch vets again. I just want someone to care about what’s causing it as much as I do.
