Please Help, What's Wrong With My Dog by jimohibrahim(m): 11:41am On Jul 16, 2018
Good morning guys
I'm pretty new in this section, I have a Caucasian female dog her name is Bella
I traveled and kept Bella with a friend, came back and realize a lot has changed, she's not eating well and what bothers me most is her fur pulling out.. Especially on the lap area.
This morning I was petting her and I can literally pull the fur out without stress like its already waiting to fall off...

Please I need to know what's wrong with her and the solution...

Thanks in advance

Possible causes of hair loss could be anything from parasites, infections, nutritional deficiencies, allergies, dry skin, and so on.

The additional history of poor appetite I believe should narrow the diagnosis down to either parasites or infections.

Assuming there are no other symptoms to narrow the diagnosis even further, if I were you I'd first treat her for those 2 and see how it goes in the short term...deworm, give ivermectin tab, give a combination of antibiotics like flagyl and augmentin. And if symptoms persist, get worse or show no improvement after 3 days, you can contact your vet.

In the longer term, you may want to consider preventive measures like good quality food, multivitamin & cod liver oil supplements, regular deworming, ectoparasite control, and good hygiene practices...

Good luck!
