Why is my pug losing his hair?

Lately I am noticing my black pug who is 3 years old, is losing hair.It started on his underside and his legs and on his head. Now it is on the part of his tail that curls up and their are diagonal stripes on either side of his butt that look like this / \ . I have been giving him a fish oil capsule daily from the vet for over a year for his coat. It looks shiny and nice. Can you help me?

Your pug might have allergies. My pug does and I had to switch her food. Look into a food with out any corn.

Not a vet, but.....



Sounds like Mange, which means your dog's immune system is not fighting skin mites anymore.



Many puppies get mange briefly while their immune systems develop.



Call your vet if you don't want to pay for the visit.

Hmmm...I am a groomer and for some reason the black pugs have skin and coat trouble, at least more so in my experience than the fawns. Is he itching in these places and possibly rubbing the hair off?? I would take him to the vet for a skin scraping.
