    Hey So in the past week or so my dog has gotten a bald patch on his back its been gettin bigger daily. I took him to the vets to see what it was and she couldnt see any thing said they would do blood test and a skin bioposy.. witch is very expensive and from what ive herd its quite common and vets rarely figure out what it is or what caused it? just wondering if anyone herd of this before? Thanks

    My dog has gotten them on his tummy from the grass in the park but never anywhere else. Pirotin for a few days and he was sorted.

    Is the patch dry or is it a kind of sticky wet, gooey typ of patch?

    If its moist/gooey it could be a hot spot, wet excema.
