Expert: Marie Peppers / The Boston Terrier Lady - 1/20/2010

Question
My Boston is 12 months old, she is red with white.  She is fed Blue Buffalo food (hypoallergenic) She is brushed weekly and bathed with an oatmeal shampoo (4-5 weeks).  She has started to bald around her ears and possibly the sides of her forehead.  She is scratching 1 ear so I do plan to take her in.  Is hair loss common with red Bostons?  Thanks for getting back to me

Answer
Boston lost his hair;  skin problems in Boston dog;


**HI All!  Bostons are prone to skin and coat problems.  May be some kind of allergen hitting this gal.  Oh, I love the RED Bostons!  How about adding some supplements to her program?
The Blue Buff is a good food.  You can keep on this food a little longer.
I hate to make food changes right away.


How about some Vitamin E - We have had great luck with Nature's Sunshine Brand:
Give 1 vit E per day for 5 days , and then give 1 EVERY other Day for 1 month...
EXCELLENT for the immune system   
( Can be found in some Heatlh Food stores or on-line)

Nature's Sunshine sells a very good quality Vit E.

*** these are 100 IU each - very low dosage and SAFE...
