Started out as a small spot - I thought it could have been a bug bite so I left it alone but it's been there for a long time so I investigated - the skin is white and flakey, and where the skin is like this the hair pulls out with the flakes around the root end. I noticed it was one ear, but in looking at the other one I see there is a very tiny spot there too - they are right on the tips of the ears, along the edges - any idea what it might be and/or what to do to treat it? I'll be calling my vet tomorrow but wanted some input from the list - thanks! ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
