I have a  big black German Shepherd in my obedience class. When they got him
he was  the runt and hardly had any hair on him When I look at him now I am
sure he  must have had mange although the vets never mentioned that to them.
he has  the gray bit of missing hair around the eyes and spots on his body
that  show gray skin showing instead of hair. His coat has got better since I
had  them change his food but there is still the odd patch that has the  thin
spots showing. He is very healthy otherwise now although he was   a skinny
unhealthy looking puppy I understand..
My question is......  what would you suggest to try putting on these spots to
see if the hair  grows in and do you think it was mange as I do? I also
thought maybe  thyroid. I told them I would see what my gurus thought

I would take him to the vet for a blood work up and skin scrapings  instead 
of guessing about it.
